A nostalgic tribute to top female artists and all-girl groups is the next musical offering from the popular Upper Deck supper theatre on the Phantom Ship at uShaka Marine World.
Featuring the sizzling hot talent of Pume Zondi, Londiwe Dhlomo, Samantha Landers and Lauren Laing, Sing it Sista promises audiences a sleek and festive night out. The show covers most genres of music ranging from the cutesy vocals of the 1920s Brox Sisters and swinging wartime favourites The Andrew Sisters through to the disco beats of The Three Degrees and the contemporary sounds of Destiny's Child.
Also on the musical menu are Bananarama, Clout, Spice Girls, The Supremes, Pussycat Dolls and Wilson Phillips, as well as Chicago and Moulin Rouge's Lady Marmalade. Backing is by the top-notch five-piece uShaka Marine World band with costumes designed and styled for each decade by Bradley Marshall.
Scripted in monologues and dialogues, the show depicts all types of women in different situations, eras and relationships. It includes hit numbers such as Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy, My Heart belongs to Daddy, Baby Love, Stop in the Name of Love, Sisters are doing it for themselves, Fire, Substitute, Pussycat Dolls "Buttons" and, of course, Beyonce's Single Ladies. There is also a medley of hits from Adele, Amy Winehouse and Duffy.
The show is produced by Events and Entertainment Manager Wayne Scott and is directed by Charon Williams Ros.
Sing it Sista runs on the revamped Phantom Ship's Upper Deck from August 13 to October 17. Performances Thursday to Saturday nights at 20h00 (dinner starts at 19h00). Tickets R150 pp include the show and an excellent three-course buffet. The Upper Deck also has a new wine and cocktail menu in the bar which now sports its very own mini aquarium tanks.
