Fri 10 Sep: "Blood Orange" by Craig Morris, directed by Greig Coetzee and based on the novel by Troy Blacklaws

Four years ago, this extraordinary performer brought this show to our school. He is once again touring with it and, if you missed it before, this is your chance to see a truly beautiful piece of theatre. It is the story of a young man's army days and of his coming of age. Morris is a professional dancer and brings to his acting the added element of physical theatre. Clever use of props and subtle lighting add to the overall effect. The show won and Ovation Award at this year's Grahamstown Festival.

Fri 29 Oct: "Cirlce of Life" by Ian von Memerty and Family

I quote from a review by Bob Everleigh:

"The Von Memertys are becoming South Africa's very own travelling Von Trapps!  The peripatetic quartet offer two hours of top-drawer family entertainment, as much fun for patrons as for the Von Mems to perform, which they do to a fare-thee-well!"

The material, honed to perfection as one expects from SA's master showman, neatly packages the talents of all four: the already familiar song and dance abilities of Ian and Viv and the obviously similarly developing talents of Kasvia and Oscar. Many of us know the story of the von Memerty children and it is heartening to see Oscar (aged 14) and his young sister (aged 10) following in the footsteps, literally, of their talented parents. It's a show of beautifully executed dance routines, superb songs and subtle humour. Good for the whole family to watch.
