Odd Man Out is worth checking out if you're looking for something to help you destress from the year-end fatigue that has set in. Be prepared to fight back tears - but from laughter - as this show is sure to deliver.

In a recent chat with him ahead of the Joburg run, he unpacked the genesis of the show.

"The idea came from my deep personal need ... to overshare. But truly, Odd Man Out was born from that awkward space we all find ourselves in as adults. You're in your 40s, raising teenagers who think you're cringe, trying to stay married without Googling 'marriage hacks, and wondering why your lower back is filing for early retirement.

"I've always felt like I didn't quite fit in. Not in school, not on stage, not even at the gym. So I decided to build a show around that. Odd Man Out is part comedy, part confession, and part group therapy - just with a bar."
