UPCOMING SHOW AT THE PLAYHOUSE

THENJIWE UNPLUGGED

Date: 03 October 2025
Venue: Opera Theatre


For the first time since February 2020, just before the world shut down, South Africa’s comedy queen Thenjiwe returns to her hometown stage with her most personal and powerful show yet — Thenjiwe Unplugged.

After a world tour with The Mandela Effect and a sold-out run at the Edinburgh Festival, Thenjiwe is back in Durban with hilarious new material, wild true stories, and the wisdom of a woman who has laughed through it all. Expect bold truths, fearless comedy, and a few surprises — including where she was when the pandemic hit.
