IN BLACK & WHITE

Rhumbelow Theatre to present Jonathan Roxmouth after the Witness Hilton Arts Festival.

Jonathan Roxmouth’s sell out show In Black & Whitereturns to Rhumbelow for a short season straight after the Hilton Arts Festival. This show played to sell-out-houses in January and is not to be missed.

Jonathan Roxmouth shares a personal semi-biographical take on showbiz life with the audience through songs, sketches and backstage stories that have held special significance for him. The programme is packed with dazzling piano prowess, a vocal tour de farce in his Phantom of the Opera in 10 Minutes and Performer's Pandemonium as well as hysterical antics inspired by Tom Lehrer, Peter Sellers, Ronnie Barker and Rowan Atkinson. With songs like Being Alive, Without A Song and On the Boards, Jonathan shares his triumphs, flops and dreams with the audience. All of these culminate in an evening of no-holds-barred entertainment in its purest form from one of South Africa's leading stage performers.

The run opens on September 23 at 19h00 with performances on September 24 and 25 at 20h00 and September 26 at18h30. There will be early shows at 14h00 on September 25 and 26.

The venue opens 90 minutes before show for picnic dinner. Tickets R100. 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.
