ALTYD JONKER
06 December 2006 - 10 December 2006

Aangewys as Gewildste Produksie en Beste Musiek-teaterproduksie by KKNK 2006. Ingrid Jonker gryp 41 jaar ná haar dood steeds die verbeelding aan, nie net as digter nie, maar as 'n romantiese, tragiese Suid-Afrikaanse Marilyn Monroe-figuur. Haar lewe – die ontwrigte jeugjare en vurige liefdeslewe – en digtersnalatenskap spreek van 'n sensitiewe kunstenaar wat aan 'n ongenaakbare wêreld uitgelewer is. Altyd Jonker is 'n emosioneel meesleurende produksie met 'n sterk visuele impak wat op 'n omvangryke manier hulde bring aan 'n merkwaardige figuur wat voortleef in haar werk en standpunte. En vanweë haar menslikheid.

SCROOGE
05 December 2006 - 17 December 2006

If good, clean family entertainment is what you are looking for this Christmas, then look no further than the Muizenberg Masque Theatre. From the 5th – 17th December, the Waterfront Theatre Company will be producing Keith Galloway’s musical, “Scrooge” – an adaptation of “A Christmas Carol” by Charles Dickens. The witty script and lyrics of Keith Galloway and catchy music of Ian von Memerty all help to deliver the true meaning of Christmas via the grouchy miser, Ebenezer Scrooge, who hates Christmas but soon comes to see the pleasure and beauty of it.

BAMBI IN KABARET - SUNDAYS
29 October 2006 - 17 December 2006

There seems to be no end to the appeal of Tannie Evita's blonde sussie! Because of public demand for the Sunday shows at the Intimate Theatre, Bambi in Kabaret has been extended till mid-December. The Kabaret is about her extraordinary story of survival told in song, her background echoed in familiar tunes, her inspirations gently mocked through canny impersonation. With Pieter-Dirk Uys as Bambi and with music arranged and played by Godfrey Johnson, the cabaret is performed in three languages. Bambi's story is told in English, while the songs also include some in German and some in Afrikaans. This cabaret is not for the faint-hearted.
