THE HISTORY OF COMEDY SHOW, JOE BARBER' Joe Barber is a stage play based on real-life situations from the Cape Flats and surrounding areas.

Peterson added that he enjoys how the different characters surprise him.

Fooling around with characters gives you a window into what's possible. You step into else's shoes and [the] surprise that comes. It also always surprises me what people find funny.
