After sell out seasons in his hometown, audiences in Johannesburg now get the chance to enjoy Cape Town’s funnyman KURT SCHOONRAAD for the first time in his hilarious one-man comedy show SPIDERS & MAYONNAISE, performing at The Fringe at the JoBurg Theatre for a short 2 week season from 13th April 2010.

SPIDERS & MAYONNAISE takes a unique look at the lighter side of being South African; from our every day fears, pet hates all the way to bloomer panties. Come join Kurt on an hysterical journey through South Africa's past, present and future. But if slapping your thighs and rolling in the aisles with laughter is not your thing, then this show is not for you!

Kurt has been dubbed Cape Town's quirkiest rubber face and favourite delinquent, with their audiences loving the ever popular SPIDERS & MAYONNAISE – and now its Jozi’s turn to have their ribs broken with sidesplitting humour.

Kurt is best known as the accidental tourist in the ever popular hit SA TV show 'Going Nowhere Slowly', and the whacky game show 'Crazy Games'. Now see the living legend for yourself as you’ve never seen him before and laugh away those oncoming autumn blues!

SPIDERS & MAYONNAISE runs at the Fringe at the JoBurg Theatre from 13 – 25 April 2010. Performances are from Tuesdays – Saturdays at 20h00.

Excerpts from an earlier review by Sergio Ben for Cape Argus ‘Tonight’:
“Cape Flats joker a master of delivery”
“Kurt Schoonraad's show has perfect timing.”
“…the stories he tells us have universal appeal.”
“It is very rare that we laugh with hatred, and Schoonraad's show elicits genuine, joyful laughs.”
“Spiders and Mayonnaise takes us on an investigation into how well - or not - the new South Africa works.”
“He weaves such a rich, diverse tapestry with his show…”
“Spiders and Mayonnaise is a topsy-turvy laugh-a-minute - and well worth the ticket price.”
