Odd Man Out by Stuart Taylor

ODD MAN OUT RETURNS TO THE BAXTER

Following a sold-out run earlier this year, the award-winning comedian brings back his sharp wit and honest humour. Audiences can expect a fresh take on life’s awkward moments, told with Taylor’s trademark charm.

In Odd Man Out, Stuart explores the comedy of feeling different. He reflects on his teenage years as a magic-obsessed misfit and his current adventures as a suburban dad and husband. Each story blends sharp observation with heartfelt humour, making it both relatable and laugh-out-loud funny.

With sharp writing and unfiltered honesty, Odd Man Out proves that being different isn’t a flaw—it’s pure comedy gold. Cape Town audiences can look forward to an evening of laughter, truth, and perfectly timed punchlines.
