Loyiso Gola is back on Netflix with a new original comedy special ‘Unlearning’ debuting globally on March 23, 2021. Africa’s latest Netflix Original was filmed in front of a live audience at the famed Zeits Mocca, following strict COVID-19 protocols, and while the audience was small and intimate, the laughter filled the room.
In this special Loyiso explores unlearning all of the perceptions and behaviors we take on as children which inform our lives as adults, told through the prism of his own experience of maturity and masculinity in Apartheid South Africa.
