Westmaas has for the last couple of years taken the former Dutch colony in South America by storm, maturing from funny-man to leading comedy talent in the country. "His approach to the business is pleasantly professional," said Graves. The comedian not only does a regular one man show, but also secured a contract with the national telecommunications company TELESUR, lending his face, voice and talent to all the company's promotional efforts. An MP3 sample of one his youngest products for the company, a skit in which his personage "Tommy Krishnadath" successfully uses TELESUR's TeleG product, is going around among Suriname netizens like wildfire. "Tommy Krisnadath is a funny, but colorful Surinamer of Indian descent, who appears in Stephen's Wisje Wesje Wasje show that he will be performing here," said Graves.
He said the show will be a lighter moment for everyone who speaks Dutch, Suriname's official language. "The Wisje Wesje Wasje performance is light fun and appeals to every member of the family, so people can actually bring their children. The first time he did this material, he was performing for a group of Senior Citizens in Suriname," Graves hinted.
The show will take place at the Cultural Center on Back Street. Adding musical sauce will be DJ Mario, Suriname's # 1 DJ, who Graves also flew in three years ago to play at Q Club and other gigs. "Mario is still doing his thing," the promoter said about the skilful DJ who is house DJ at Millennium, a club in Suriname, and is also the official DJ for Surifesta, Suriname's wild year-end blast.
