BWW Reviews: Electric CABARET Lights Up Theatre on the Bay
by David Fick - August 25, 2012
KickstArt's CABARET, the classic musical by John Kander, Fred Ebb and Joe Masteroff based on Christopher Isherwood's semi-autobiographical GOODBYE TO BERLIN, has opened at last in Cape Town. A professional production of the show has not been seen in this city for far too long and, in this fantastic production, its return is a welcome one.

BWW Reviews: Vivid and Vibrant Trip Down MAFEKING ROAD at The Kalk Bay Theatre
by David Fick - August 19, 2012
Four of Herman Charles Bosman's stories are dramatised in The Pink Couch's MAFEKING ROAD and Tara Notcutt, Andrew Laubscher and Mathew Lewis succeed in serving Bosman's vision, even as they deconstruct everything that is traditionally accepted about his work and the way it has hitherto been performed.

BWW Reviews: South African BURN THE FLOOR Tour Sizzles, July-Sept 2012
by David Fick - July 27, 2012
'This ain't your grandma's ballroom,' the posters say. And although BURN THE FLOOR might not be the kind of ballroom dancing my grandmother grew up seeing (or dancing, for that matter), I would hazard a guess that she would enjoy the show just as much as I did.

BWW Reviews: JUST BUSINESS Entertains and Stimulates at the Artscape Arena, July 2012
by David Fick - July 21, 2012
There is honour among thieves, they say. In JUST BUSINESS, playwright and self-styled cultural activist Mike van Graan says otherwise. A reworking of an earlier play, HOSTILE TAKEOVER, the text offers to the audience an investigation of corruption in business and the game of survival that seems to be the driving force behind it all.

BWW Reviews: THE BLUE IRIS Disappoints and MIES JULIE Thrills on Cape Town Stages
by David Fick - July 16, 2012
