(John Didlick, Grant
Bell & Gary McKenzie)
First staged seven years ago at the now-defunct Heritage
Theatre in Hillcrest, Durban’s longest running comedy cabaret group, the
ever-popular Gee Jays, will present their smash hit show Bad Moon Rising for three shows only from July on 25 at Tina’s
Hotel in Kloof.
The Gee Jays, comprising Gary McKenzie, Grant Bell and John
Didlick, celebrate and pay tribute to the music of Credence Clearwater Revival
and all things redneck.
The show features all the hits from one of the super-groups
of the ‘70’s. From Have You Ever Seen The
Rain, Up Around The Bend and Heard it
Through the Grapevine to Looking Out
My Back Door, Hello Mary Lou, The
Midnight Special and, of course, Bad
Moon Rising.
The Deep South roots and swamp pop rockabilly sounds of
Credence are brilliantly captured by the talented trio. The show also has the
usual, zany looks at life and comic sketches audiences have come to expect from
The Gee Jays. It also showcases other classic country songs like Teach Your Children, Oh Lord It’s Hard To Be
Humble, Thank God I’m A Country Boy and Take
Me Home Country Road.
Bring an open mind and laughing tackle, because the show
pokes and prods at all things country and is bound to have audiences in
stitches.
