Over the last 5 years Punchline Comedy Club has provided a platform for local comedic talent to grow and has built a loyal fan base through their open mic nights and digital content.
“More than anything it is my conviction that standup comedy is the final frontier in the entertainment industry in Kenya & Africa as a whole. This is the next big thing. The talent is here, we have established and continue to grow a market but most importantly, there remains immeasurable potential with what we can do. This partnership with Gilbeys Gin will take the Punchline Platform further to achieving its goal in making Nairobi the stand-up capital of Africa.” Said Eric Lu Sava, Founder Punchline Comedy Club
