Simon’s Restaurant at Groot Constantia is getting ready to swap a quiet evening in the Cape Winelands for plenty of laughs with SIMON’S SAYS: LAUGH!, featuring comedian Alan Committie on Friday, 23 and Saturday, 24 October 2026.
Written and performed by Alan Committie, the show brings his latest stand-up material from AVA-LAUGH-TA! to Simon’s for two nights of comedy.
With 28 years of comedy behind him, Committie brings together witty wordplay, fast-paced humour, physical comedy and sharp observations about the wonderfully ridiculous parts of everyday life.
- The material covers everything from passport photos and rental car stress to relationships, travel and passwords, giving the audience plenty of familiar situations to laugh at. And, for fans of a certain comedy staple, the flipchart will be making an appearance. Committie’s career includes 28 solo stand-up shows and 974 performances of DEFENDING THE CAVEMAN. He was also inducted into the Comics Choice Hall of Fame in 2025.
The evening begins with dinner at 6PM, followed by the live comedy show at 8PM. The ticket costs R280 per person, with dinner not included in the ticket price. That gives guests the chance to make an evening of it at Simon’s Restaurant in Groot Constantia before settling in for Committie’s stand-up performance. With two dates available, the event offers two opportunities to catch SIMON’S SAYS: LAUGH! in the Cape Winelands.
Tickets are available via Quicket, with the event taking place on both 23 and 24 October 2026. For an evening that combines dinner at Simon’s with live comedy from one of South Africa’s established comedians, it is a simple recipe: arrive hungry, stay for the laughs and keep an eye out for that flipchart.
