Actor and comedian Daniel Omara aka Danny is known for his hilarious lines on the popular TV show 'MIC Check' and 'The Hostel', However, this accomplished comedian is also known to take time off to mentor upcoming talent.
The monthly Club silk show called 'Punkd' Comedy show put together by Journalist Rafsanjani showcases this new talent from in and around Kampala.
Omara encouraging and performing with these upcoming comedians on the same staye gives them confidence and exposes them to the art of comedy in a way that many are not.
In last weeks show about six comedians were showcased and they showed some real promise.
The audience was introduced to stand up performances from Mukebeta, Dick, Conan Tumusiime, Dickens, Ivan and of course Danny himself.
I did not expect to laugh as much as I did but was pleasantly surprised at how deep and funny these young comedians really were, And I definitely look forward to watching more shows from them.
The crowd in attendance last week grew by leaps compared to previous shows meaning that the appreciation for this fresh talent is on the rise and ultimately the growth of comedy as a whole, in this budding entertainment industry here in Uganda.
