A sensational look-alike of British comedian Rowan Atkinson, popularly known as Mr Bean in the popular British sitcom of the same name, Mr Pak Bean will touch down at Harare International Airport today ahead of the comedy show dubbed Splash Comedy Night.
At the show, Mr Pak Bean will share the stage with local award-winning comedian Doc Vikela and Simba The Comic King.
Speaking to NewsDay, the concert spokesperson, Agrippa Juma said Mr Pak Bean’s first public appearance would be at their stand at Harare Agricultural Show a day after his arrival.
“As we want to promote our brand through laughter, we are proud to be bringing to Zimbabwe, for the first time ever, hilarious comedian, Mr Pak Bean.
