BOOLULU UNCLE FUNDRAISER

Fundraiser for Musho festival on August 6.

The Musho Festival hosted by PANSA which showcases one-hander and two-hander productions at the Catalina in January every year, has an audience vote allowing all members of every audience to give feedback of what they thought of the show.

The Boolulu Uncle (in its previous incarnation as a self-titled piece known as Senzo Mthethwa, was the winner of the 2010 Musho Audience Award this year. It is the charming original true story about a young Zulu boy growing up with an Indian family in Reservoir Hills which was an instant Musho Festival theatre hit in January, and also sold out in its April/May and June/July runs. The piece is jointly devised and written by comedy heavyweights, Kumseela Naidoo (who also directs) and Koobeshan Naidoo, and Senzo Mthethwa (whose story is being told and who performs in the show).

The fundraising performance takes place on August 6 at 20h00 at the Catalina Theatre. Tickets R65 booked through Thandeka Sibisi on 031 305 7612 or email tsibisi@mweb.co.za. Tickets also available: www.strictlytickets.com
