Cape Town — Australia has recently become a hotspot for South African celebrities, with comedic heavyweight Marc Lottering and Springboks captain Siya Kolisi both making appearances in the land Down Under.
In pictures posted to Facebook by Lottering’s husband Anwar McKay, the couple could be seen having a blast alongside fellow comedic genius Alfred Adriaan and the Bok player.
“Stunning evening with these fine South African gentleman! Good to be back in Australia again. Looking forward to the first performance of ‘Alfred&Marc’ in Perth tomorrow night!!!,” wrote McKay.
As reported by The South African, Adriaan and Lottering are currently on the Australian leg of their show Alfred and Marc, and are set to perform three additional shows in Sydney, after they’ve completed their Perth dates.
The duo, long-established pillars of South African comedy, have teamed up to showcase their best material from over the years.
Taken that the comedians are in Australia at the same time as Kolisi, who is currently tackling the Rugby Championship games for the Bokke — naturally, they had met up for a relaxing wine-down session amid the hussle and bussle that Australia has to offer.
Following the posting of said pictures, supporters flooded the comment section with playful, envious remarks about the hangout. Seemingly, many were thrilled to see their South African icons out together as well and expressed their admiration for the group.
Take a look at these comments:
Michelle Brown: “All the very best- for the Show, tomorrow night and for the Rugby, Saturday!!! Proudly South African!!”
Eugene Jacobus: “Awesome!!! Looks like a home away from home gathering!!”
Merle Merillier: “4 Legends right there!”
Gail Jeffit Liebman: “I also have a picture with Siya and I have one with Mark …. You next Anwar “
