Funny, warm and highly relatable, with Kurt’s relaxed storytelling style effortlessly winning over the audience. His observations of everyday life—from road rage to Woolworths shopping—are hilarious because they are so recognisable.…
A Celebration of Talent and Diversity presented by SANDT. It is wonderful to see this kind of collaboration and I would love to see more productions that bring together local and international talent in this way. …
A vibrant, energetic evening of excellent live music, captivating visuals and skilful movement that created a wonderful island atmosphere. The audience clearly loved it, and I left with a smile, a spring in my step and the feeling of having enjoyed a real feel-good night out.…
MELANINA – RETURN TO ORIGIN is an absolute feast for the senses, packed with jawdropping moments from start to finish. The theme is old-world glamour with an African flavour, and the venue is designed to feel like a New Orleans speakeasy.…
Whether you're single, dating, or happily married, everyone remembers those pre-date nerves, the acute agony of deciding what to wear, and the awkward silences that seem to go on for eternity. FIRST DATE sets these moments to a catchy score you'll be humming long after you leave the theatre.…
