Komediant is a unique, bilingual comedy experience that mixes Afrikaans and English in a way only Virgil Prins can manage. After successful shows at the 2025 KKNK, the Umtiza Arts Festival in East London, Gqeberha and Johannesburg, Prins is now bringing his one-man show to Windmill Casino in Bloemfontein.
This show is a behind-the-scenes look into the world of being a comedian – the expectations, the awkward moments, the brilliance, the bombs, and everything in between. With his signature wit, Prins walks the line between prepared punchlines and pure improvisation.
Half of the show is planned, and the other half happens there and then, with the audience as active participants. You start laughing, perhaps thinking a little, and maybe realise: comedy is more complex than it seems. Prins manages to make you laugh about the silliest things, but also about the things you’ve long forgotten to laugh about.
Whether you’re fluent in English, Afrikaans, or both, Komediant delivers something fresh, sharp and honest. Come experience an evening full of storytelling, observation, and the type of humour that is not only funny but also real.
