LA ROSA SPANISH DANCE THEATRE COMMUNITY SHOW
|
26 March 2006
|
La Rosa Spanish Dance Theatre will present excerpts from two of their highly acclaimed shows, Colores del Cabo (Colours of the Cape) and Flamenco Puro (Pure Flamenco) at two community venues this month.
Rhythm forms the pulse that runs through cultures throughout the world and Colores del Cabo, choreographed by Carolina Rosa, the Artisitic Director of La Rosa, is an exploration into the rhythms of the Cape that celebrates the rich cultural diversity of the region. By reviving street games and songs that have been sung by past generations from all cultures, this piece that will be performed by children from the community together with professionals, combines song and dance interpreted through flamenco rhythms. La Rosa aims to bring about an awareness of this aspect of the Cape’s cultural heritage amongst children and adults alike by using the rhythmic tools of flamenco. Working with the children participating in La Rosa’s development initiatives in Gugulethu (Likwezi) and Elsies River (ComArt) the musicians and dancers from La Rosa Spanish Dance Theatre’s Company and Trainee Company will perform songs in Xhosa sung by Nolufefe Mtchabe, English and Afrikaans songs from the Cape Flats and the Bo-Kaap.
Flamenco Puro, the second presentation, is an exciting and dynamic flamenco work that is particularly well suited to a smaller venue and it showcases the talented La Rosa artists in a familiar style of Spanish dance that is both powerful and passionate in its delivery. The dancers will be joined by a musical ensemble, led by Bienyameen on guitar. He will be accompanied by Roberto San Juan on percussion (cajon) and Nicole Holm on vocals.

ASWOESTERTJIE – ‘N PANTOMINI (SONDAE)
|
19 March 2006 - 26 March 2006
|
19 en 26 Maart
Gaerin Hauptfleisch se stuk Aswoestertjie – ‘n Pantomini is op publieke aandrang nog steeds by die Klein Libertas Teater op Stellenbosch te sien! (Rolverdeling: Leon Kruger, Floyed de Vaal, Frieda van den Heever en Stephanie Hough) In hierdie produksie is die bekende sprokie van Aspoestertjie verwerk tot ‘n pantomime, maar die geselskap is gebukkend onder erge finansiële druk en moet al hul vernuf inspan om effekte en skouspel te skep soos ‘n regte pantomime betaam. Alhoewel ‘n paar afwesige akteurs die skouspel reduseer tot ‘n pantomini eerder as ‘n pantomime, laat die geselskap hulle nie deur sulke detail van stryk bring nie en daar word nie net gek geskeer met die oorspronklike sprokie nie, maar visuele grappe en die akteurs se geswoeg om voor te bly met spesiale effekte, laat die gehoor skaterlag.

JODY ABRAHAMS IN ‘IS JA!’
|
21 March 2006 - 31 March 2006
|
Jody Abrahams’s one-man show ‘Is Ja!’ is back in Cape Town and you can catch it at Obz Café until the 31st at 8pm. Is Ja! is a roller-coaster ride that uses music and song to tell the sometimes sad, often hilarious, yet always truthful account of Abrahams’ life thus far. In his quest to illustrate the triumphs as well as the heartaches he encountered during his career’s rapid ascendancy, Abrahams takes on the personas of other characters to share his intensely personal story.
Written by the talented Johannesburg playwright, Stephen Simm, ‘Is Ja! gives audiences insight into the sometimes bizarre industry called showbiz and allows Abrahams to express his versatility both as an actor and singer.
In this run, Abrahams uses more music and a refined musical score to illustrate his story. This ranges from local musical hits to traditional Cape-Malay Medleys. Swing to Afrikaanse liedjies. Rock to Broadway classics. And pop to hip-hop. Abrahams’ own compositions are also featured in the musical score.

ROLLING HEADS
|
10 March 2006 - 01 April 2006
|
Award-winning writer, Andrew Whaley's greatly anticipated play “Rolling Heads” will run at the Old Zoo on the Rhodes Memorial Estate from the 10th of March until the 1st of April. Set against the background of violent evictions and slum clearance during the winter of 2005, this dramatic story derives its power and humour from the chaos that forces two desperadoes to escape underground to freedom in South Africa. Along the way they have to deal with home and the heart, pitfalls, presidents and municipal accidents. It is a dramatic and hilarious journey that guarantees a meeting with destiny! Heartfelt and funny, Rolling Heads brings together the superb comic gifts of Adam Neill as director, with actors Dylan Wilson-Max and Tembinkosi Njokweni, and Nicholas Ellenbogen as production designer. (Wednesday to Saturday).
