Anthony Stonier revives his critically acclaimed review at Rhumbelow Theatre.
Following the recent passing of singing legend Eartha Kitt, Anthony Stonier will revive his critically acclaimed revue, Down to Eartha at Rhumbelow Theatre.
This elegant, amusing and at times poignant celebration of a truly original star features all of her timeless classics including Old Fashioned Girl, Santa Baby, I wanna be evil, All by myself, A hard day last night, Let’s do it, Back in Business, I’m still here and C’est si Bon to name but a few. Musical Direction is by Tim Pullen
Shows take place on March 13, 14, 20 and 21 at 20h00 (March 15 and 22 at 18h30). The venue opens 90 minutes before show for picnic dinner.
Tickets R80. Take along food picnic baskets and braais will be available. There is limited secure parking and booking is essential. A cash bar is available (no alcohol may be brought on to the premises). Rhumbelow Theatre is situated in Cunningham Avenue off Bartle Road.

(Editor’s Note: When I reviewed the production the first time round I noted that: “Anthony is utterly faithful to Eartha Kitt’s breathy style and unique speech pattern with its distinct handling of certain vowels and strong emphasis on word-ending consonants. He has the famous growl down to perfection!” - Caroline Smart)
