The comedy shows, ‘Doing It for the Money’, ‘Still Doing It’ and her solo show, Just Me with an “L”, have been met with great reviews as a Cape Town hit. Mel takes laughter and hilarity very seriously and, as one of only a handful of female comedians in the country, she is part of a very exclusive club.
