(The cast of “Viva Las
Vegas” in Halloween mood!)
The Barnyard Theatre at Gateway will celebrate Halloween for
the first time on October, 31, with two special events – one during the day
aimed at children, and one at night for adults and including the Rugby World
Cup final.
The first is a fun event for kids/families in the afternoon,
with the theatre opening at 11h30, and activities from 12h00 to 14h00. This
will include a Hall Of Horrors, face painters, a magician, and trick or treat
stations. There will also be a hip-hop dancing display, followed by a dance-off
for the kids.
Things will be amped up in the evening for adults when
things kick off at 17h30, in preparation for the Rugby World Cup final on the
theatre’s big screen. Patrons attending this show will experience the House Of Horrors,
can have their face painted by special effect make-up artists (either for
Halloween or in support of their favourite rugby finalists), and can visit the
specially dedicated shooter bar.
The screening of the Rugby World Cup final will then be followed
by The Barnyard’s current show, Viva Las
Vegas, with a DJ and dance floor keeping the party going thereafter.
Everyone attending both events is encouraged not only to dress
up but also to decorate their seating area in a Halloween theme, with prizes up
for grabs! The Barnyard’s kitchen will be open from 11h30 until 20h00 when the
evening’s show starts.
Tickets R130 pp for the afternoon show, and R250 for the
evening show, with seating being as for normal shows. For bookings and enquiries,
