Just days of ahead of his show, Channel24 called Ntosh a call and spoke to him openly about his journey through the industry, what audience members can expect from his performance at the festival and what has influenced his stand-up.
About how he's incorporating his biggest influences into his live show at The Cape Town Comedy Festival,"is about me stopping drinking and finding out who I am. It's more observational content in terms of thinking of people and how they interact with each other. Stuff that I find funny, that people do and once you talk about it, they will admit to it. Quite a lot of it is about male and female dynamics. I talk about how male privilege is actually not a privilege it's a disease.
About whether or not he adapts his show to suit a festival crowd, the performer was blunt about his approach, saying: "I'm a very confident person in what I do. Even when I'm doing an ensemble show, where there's different comedians on the line-up, I actually sit and listen to the audience. I listen and then go 'these are the kind of things that they like', but that doesn't change my set. I like to take them on my journey. That's why I never do that [change my set]. But I do like to listen to the other comedians.
