The brand of comedy showcased fuses the different South African cultures.<\/p>\n

\u201cVernacular comedians are not as recognised as the mainstream guys,\u201d said Mashabela.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have to work harder to get the recognition, but vernacular comedy is growing and people who come to the shows are extremely loyal and show a huge amount of love and appreciation.\u201d<\/p>\n

Carnival City\u2019s marketing manager, Michelle Smith, said, \u201cWe are thrilled that Rock Your Mother Tongue Comedy will be making its way to our stage in February.<\/p>\n

\u201cCarnival City is a proud supporter of South African performing artists and comedians.\u201d<\/p>\n

The show will start at 8pm.<\/p>\n
