Our place Restuarant in Durbanvile invites you to join us for a night filled with mystery, gossip and back stabbing. The “Taking out the trailer trash” Murder Mystery draws inspiration from politically incorrect stereotyping in South Africa. The victim of our mystery, Koosie Pienaar, had invited trailer park residents (of which you are one) to join him for a braai at his ‘plot.’ As usual, the Klippies and Cokes were flowing; a new batch of Umqombothi had just been brewed and everyone was having a lekker time. What happened next in respectable English...Koosie left to wash his hands at the tap around the corner and never came back. Kosie was found face down in one of the big black dirt-bins – dead! You are now a suspect and by the end of dinner you will need to find out which one of you killed Koosie. None of you will feel safe again in your little trailer (trash) homes until you do! What happened next in your ‘taal’…Koosie Pienaar is vrek and nou’s jy in die @#$! Expect seriously stereotypical South African characters, thrown together in a melting pot of boere-wors charm and chakalaka flavoured humour, as suspects become “ace detectives” in an effort to stay out of Polsmoor Correctional Facility.

Two of the most popular composers performed by two of the best piano men around–award-winning performers Godfrey Johnson and Roland Perold première their new show. Contemporaries from across the Atlantic, Noël Coward and Cole Porter were masters of their craft when it came to hitting a nerve with just the right amount of sarcasm and irony, and brought us favourite songs such as Let’s Do It, Mad Dogs and Englishmen and Mrs. Worthington. Featuring the dynamic musical duo Johnson and Perold, this collection of Noël Coward and Cole Porter’s timeless masterpieces delight with witticisms, social commentary and innate absurdity.

In die uitgelese geselskap van Basson Laubscher (kitaar), Schalk Joubert (baskitaar) en Vernon Swart (dromme), gaan Valiant en sy boys weereens die dak lig met die vuurwarm rock, blues en ballades waarvoor hulle al meer as twee dekades landwyd bekend is. Met werk aan 'n nuwe album wat reeds fluks vorder, kan gaste dalk net verras word met 'n voorsmakie van die nuwe komposisies uit Valiant se pen waaraan daar die afgelope tyd agter die skerms geskaaf word. Voeg daarby die talle gevestigde ou gunstelinge waarmee hierdie gesoute span musiekmakers hul aanhangers telkens betower, en twee aande van volbloed Bolandse rock 'n roll is vir ieder en elk op die kaarte. 'n Ekstra verrassing is dat Valiant dan ook sy splinternuwe boek, 'n rubriekbundel getiteld 'Trouens en Terloops', sal bekendstel. Die bundel bevat 'n lywige versameling van sy gewilde tydskrif-rubrieke en -artikels van die afgelope ses, sewe jaar. Eksemplare daarvan, sowel as cd's, sal by die vertoning te koop wees. So, voordat Valiant weer vir die res van die jaar so besig raak met toere en feeste wat hom die hele land vol sal neem, en ook 'n paar nuwe TV-produksies waarby hy vanjaar betrokke is, gryp die geleentheid aan om hom en sy manjifieke band lewendig op die verhoog te sien!

This series of paintings expose indigenous South African plant forms and the strength and potency that they hold. Each artwork depicts the coexistence and interdependence of nature’s male and female forces, celebrating these counterparts that both oppose and harmonise with one another. Each plant relies on the inter-relationship of these two forces in order to be rooted within its perfectly balanced structure. Claudia’s work taps into our rich cultural heritage. Each artwork evokes the notion as to where we come from and where we belong. As South Africans, we are rooted in our cultural environment which, in turn, is fundamentally rooted in us. In isolating her imagery from its surrounding landscape, Claudia’s work reveals a dynamic moment in a plant’s life. Her bold, magnified representations of plants become a landscape in their own right. Opening at 11am on Saturday March 17thOpening speaker: Estelle Jacobs. Walkabout with the artist at 11am on Saturday March 24th. Gallery hours: Tuesday-Saturday 10am-5pm
