Kind Regards - Stand-up Comedy with Paul Lee Paul Lee is an American living in Cape Town who’s still trying to figure South Africa out. From over-polite emails to navigating local slang, from boerie rolls to bakkies, nothing is off limits. “Kind Regards” is Paul’s hilarious look at life as an American fish-out-of-water learning how to actually sound South African (and not embarrass himself in the process). Expect clean, sharp stand-up comedy about communication, culture shock, and those little moments that make you say: “Wait… what?” Why buy now? Paul sold out Ground Culture Café last year, has packed out Laugh Thy Neighbour with legendary comedian Barry Hilton, and this show will sell out, too. And because you don’t want to be that person saying, “We’ll see closer to the time.” (You know who you are.) Tickets: R80 Venue: Ground Café, Observatory | Date: Saturday, 11 October | Time: 8:00 PM (arrive early for great food and drinks!)
