Trevor Noah stand-up specials to stream

SA’s best comedy export, comedian Trevor Noah has announced his departure from Comedy Central’s late-night talk show The Daily Show after seven years of entertaining viewers with his sharp wit, jokes and poking fun at celebs and politicians alike.

“I want to say thank you to the audience for an amazing seven years, it’s been wild,” said Trevor on The Daily Show at the end of September. “I find myself filled with gratitude for the journey, it’s been absolutely amazing, and something that I never expected. This show has been my greatest challenge and it’s been my greatest joy.”

He added that his departure will not be instant. He will still be on the show for some time, but his focus is going to shift back to touring the world with brand-new stand-up shows and that includes Trevor Noah Live In SA in August and September 2023, which will surely attract massive local crowds. And wouldn’t it be great to have him here!

In the meantime, hop on over to Showmax and laugh your way to happiness with the Trevor Noah Homecoming Collection.

The Daywalker & Daywalker 2.0

Trevor Noah Daywalker 2.0 on Showmax

The Daywalker from 2009 was Trevor’s first stand-up comedy show. He talks about how his parents were mavericks by falling in love in the apartheid era and tells his iconic joke, "you know how the Swiss loves chocolate", in reference to his Swiss father falling in love with his Xhosa mother.

In the 2010 Daywalker 2.0/Daywalker Revisited, Trevor adds more jokes to his show that include him poking fun at the Oprah Winfrey’s Leadership Academy For Girls in Meyerton, Gauteng.

Crazy Normal

Crazy Normal from 2011 is the follow-up to Daywalker. Trevor dazzles the audience with his imitation of the former President of South Africa Jacob Zuma’s mannerisms and talking pattern during speeches.

It’s a wonderfully funny show with razor-sharp comedy that takes no prisoners. He even explores the concept of normality. Is there a difference between normal in Sandton and normal in Soweto?
