Some say that it was planned, that it was part of the show, but the truth is that everything was spontaneous and natural, just like the personality of Sebastián Manzano, the 9-year-old boy who established himself as a future comedian during the show that Luis Slimming and Marcelo Coronel Valverde carried out a few days ago in Concepción.
After having due authorization from the father, who was also in the audience, the hosts passed the microphone to the little boy and invited him to go on stage, since at his young age he already had a comedy routine.
“Do you know a joke?” They asked him, to which he responded canchero, “I have a routine.” Immediately afterwards, he was already on the platform.
Shaking his hand, Slimming asked him what his stage name was, but he didn’t have one until that moment. Upon revealing his last name, Manzano, comedians nicknamed him Manzanita Humor. Pseudonym that everyone liked and used to open an Instagram account that already has nearly nine thousand followers.
This is how the comedians who triumphed at the Viña y Olmué Festival presented “Manzanita Humor!”

“How is the theater, University of Concepción!?”, he asked with total ease, as if he had been working as a standapero for years. Then, he began his story, related to “the stupid things they tell us to do at school… they told us to go dressed as vegetables…,” he said, causing the first laughs.
“A skinny and tall friend, I mined the bone…(it was like) a celery”, he pointed out and the laughter increased. “But, the messiest one was missing, a empelota arrived, with a flower in her pot… (she said) ‘I come from coolie-flower’”.
The applause was loud and the comedians shook his hand, “we don’t have a seagull, but we have affection, admiration and respect for you,” they told him.
But, since there is no first without a second, he then finished with a second “old” joke, he emphasized, throwing the entire audience into his pocket.
An innate talent that could undoubtedly go far and even netizens recognized that in a couple of minutes he was funnier than several of the established comedians. A round of applause for Manzanita Humor.
