SANTA'S STORY

One-woman show Santa's Story, an on-stage rendition of 94-year-old Holocaust survivor Santa Pelham's touching autobiography, captivated audiences at the Theatre on the Square in Sandton, early in 2013. The production enjoyed a sell-out season at the Fugard Studio Theatre in 2012. While the production, which is an evocative mix of storytelling and live music, is helmed by a particularly adept creative team - including accomplished local director Janice Honeyman, esteemed designers Mannie Manim and Dicky Longhurst, and gifted music arranger Matthew Reid - the solo lead of the show is none other than Santa Pelham's own daughter, multi award-winning, internationally-acclaimed opera singer Aviva Pelham.
