    uniE613 How To Ruin Christmas
    This show was a comedic fresh take on a South African Christmas. As the composer, I was tasked to creating music that would showcase South African music but still be recognised internationally as comedic and light. The result was a brand new relatable comedy sound, for authentic comedy through an African lense.
