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.

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). Pensioners & students (with valid cards) R40 Previews 8th and 9th March - two for the price of one (show only)
