Christmas time is just around the corner, and KickstArt have gone all out with their biggest production yet, Beauty and the Beast at the Elizabeth Sneddon Theatre.
If you know Steven Stead’s productions, you will also understand that his whole team are a force to be reckoned with, from Greg King’s sets and costumes to Janine Bennewith’s choreography, Shelley Maclean’s musical direction and lighting by Tina le Roux.
Georgina Mabbett will be taking the role of Belle, and Sascha Halbhuber who was fabulous in Cabaret will play the Beast.
I am lucky enough to be seeing it very soon, and I will report back to let you all know how wonderful it is. If you only see one show this year, make it this one. KickstArt rarely put a foot wrong.
Tickets range from R100 to R200 and are available through Computicket. The show runs from the 30th November to the 6th January, with special schools performances at 11am on 28th, 29th and 30th November. Tickets for these performances will be R60, contact www.kickstart.letni.co.za.
