Bad African
A musical comedy from the family disappointment
Céline Tshika did everything right: She stayed in school and got the degree. Then what? In her debut solo show ‘Bad African,’ Céline unpacks the absurdities of being a model minority in a model-c school, dating in your 20s, and navigating life as both South African and Congolese—and also, neither.
With sharp wit, catchy songs, and lyrics that warrant an African Mother side-eye, the viral social media comedian delivers a heartfelt and comedic take on identity and expectations.

What the people have to say
“Céline is the funniest, most honest comic out there right now. Watch this space, she is going to go very far. I loved the show: there is so much to laugh about, but also loads to think about.”
“A show packed with real, emotional, hard hitting truths delivered in the funniest and most endearing way! Celine just has a way of making you feel like you’re her bestie when she’s talking to you. She ropes you in with the laughs and then hits you with the truth bombs. Hilarious and impactful, would watch again!”
-Gabi, audience member
“Céline was funny and irreverent. A political comedic musical of sorts. Her wit and nuance was refreshing.”
