BIG BLUE

Adventure down a trail of blues with group headed by Tim Wells.

Rhumbelow Theatre will present Big Blue, an adventure down a trail of blues which covers a variety of artists such as Ray Charles, Billy Joel, Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix and Van Morrison.

Big Blue features the talents of Tim Wells on lead vocals, Peter Enslin on piano and keyboards, Nux Schwartz on guitar, Jason Andrew on Bass and Steve Du Plessis on Drums. The thread these experienced musos follow is one of heart-wrenching and often get-up-and-go foot-stomping blues with their hearts and souls certainly part of the equation.

The show has been described by Tim Wells as: “An adventure down a trail of blues - sometimes dark, brooding and whiskey soaked pain, sometimes uplifting toe-tapping escapism...this is our blues journey and we sometimes divert from the path a little … come along for the ride!”

Big Blue runs from March 12 to 14 and March 19 to 21. Friday and Saturday performances at 20h00 with Sunday shows starting at 18h30. The venue opens 90 minutes before show for picnic dinner.

Tickets R90. 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.
