Description
The celebrated stand-up comedian Charles Nguela is back! With his show "TIMING," he brings his fourth stand-up comedy show to the stage. The title says it all: Charles deals with a universal truth that concerns us all – timing. Inspired by the wise words of his mother: "Timing is everything in life," he shows how the right moment decides chances and dreams. Or how with bad timing everything ends in a catastrophe.
Charles himself has a special talent for being in the wrong place at the wrong time — even though he is always punctual! Whether it's meeting the love of his life, catching the career-defining moment, or simply setting the perfect pause in a joke: timing is everything. Except maybe with his cousins in South Africa. They are chronically late but score with the most charming excuse: food! Because it's hard to be angry at someone who is late but brings food for everyone.
"TIMING" is more than a comedy program. It is an evening full of stories that life itself wrote — with all its quirks, unexpected twists, embarrassing situations, narrowly missed opportunities, and completely unnecessary catastrophes. With his typical energy and positive power, Charles tells how timing connects all these experiences in unexpected ways.
