This 13th annual Savanna Comics Choice Comedy Awards theme of Then and Now holds special meaning for KwaZulu-Natal-born comedian Prince K.
His nomination for the coveted Savanna Newcomer Award is a full-circle moment for the funnyman born Smangaliso Prince Gasa - from watching Trevor Noah DVDs in rural KwaZulu-Natal to now being a first-time nominee.
The 23-year-old from Kranskop, on the North Coast, will duke it out with Akhil Maharaj, Nishen Pather, Rae du Plooy and Sjika Da Thirdborn next Saturday when the winners are announced at Gold Reef Citys The Lyric Theatre. Sowetan gets to know the comedian.
