Tsitsi Chiumya Is Back at the Lyric Theatre; and This Time, He’s a Dad

Comedy, Fatherhood, and Oversharing: Tsitsi Chiumya Live 2 Lands in Joburg This July
Because sometimes healing comes with belly laughs and awkward dad jokes.

If you’ve ever found laughter to be the best medicine during life’s chaos, Tsitsi Chiumya’s latest stand-up show is tailor-made for you. The beloved South African comic returns with Tsitsi Chiumya Live 2, taking over the Lyric Theatre at Gold Reef City on Saturday, 19 July 2025, at 7/8 pm.

This isn’t just another comedy night. It’s Tsitsi like you’ve never seen him before, now navigating the wild ride of fatherhood while trying to keep his sanity (and sense of humour) intact.

From International Accolades to Nappy Changes

If Tsitsi Chiumya isn’t already a household name, here’s the lowdown: he’s an International Emmy-nominated comedian who’s won hearts both locally and across Europe with his sharp, self-aware humour. Despite sharing stages with global comedy legends, he remains deeply relatable to South Africans from all walks of life.

Now, armed with a baby on his hip and a wit sharpened by sleepless nights, Tsitsi dives headfirst into the chaos of modern parenting. Expect stories packed with accidental wisdom, generational clashes, and the hilarious awkwardness of trying to be a “woke dad” while still figuring life out.

The Show That Heals You (Irresponsibly)

Promising “laughter, oversharing, and mild emotional damage,” Tsitsi Chiumya Live 2 is comedy therapy at its finest, if therapy came with a spotlight, a theatre full of strangers, and brutally honest reflections on your own insecurities.

The show’s social media tagline says it best: “Come heal irresponsibly.” And judging by the flood of laughing emojis and excited comments from Joburgers, that’s exactly what audiences are eager to do.
