WHO’S WINE IS IT ANYWAY?



(Barbie Meyer)

An evening of spontaneous comedy with “four semi-sane performers, two ruthless judges, one ringleader and one unforgiving scoreboard.” The audience decides what the show will be about and who will win the coveted WINE trophy.

That’s what’s on offer in Who’s WINE is it Anyway?, coming to Riverbend Crocodile Farm on the KZN South Coast.

The show is directed by Barbie Meyer who also features with Howard Kelly, Thia Hulme, Clare Gaze, Hugh Verreynne, Brian Blumrick and Jonathan Brauteseth, Who’s WINE is it Anyway? has been brought back by popular demand. This is a ‘sport’ at its best – the team members are notorious for their comedic skills and quick thinking wit.

The show runs on the players performing spontaneous scenes on the spot. There is no script and the audience provides the topics on the night. This wild tiger is kept in check by one ringleader who introduces the games and two ruthless Judges who dish out points or punish players mercilessly when necessary. Each player is a team on their own vying for the coveted prize – the ‘Wine’ trophy.

Who’s WINE is it Anyway? will take place on September 27 at the Riverbend Crocodile Farm as part of the annual Spring Wine Festival. The evening follows a supper theatre format and the ticket includes a quirky and delicious supper as well as cool blues by well known duo Jacob’s Saw. There will be a cash bar. Tickets R160 pp. Booking is essential through Riverbend on 039 316 6204.
