(Anthony Stonier)
Presented by
Rhumbelow Theatre in Umkomaas and, Anthony Stonier takes a “down memory-lane”
meander through the marvellous melodies of one of the most famous composers of
all time, Richard Rodgers, in his show, The
Sound Of His Music.
Most theatre-lovers
are familiar with the Rodgers and Hammerstein musicals - Oklahoma!, South Pacific, The King and I and, of course, The Sound of Music. Less well-known was
an earlier collaboration with another lyricist, Lorenz Hart. Audiences will,
however, recognise some of the jazz standards such as Where or When, My Funny Valentine, This Can’t be Love and Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered!
The playlist
includes Oh, What a Beautiful Morning!,
Some Enchanted Evening, Surrey with a Fringe on Top, Hello Young Lovers, Edelweiss,
Happy Talk and You'll Never Walk
Alone to name but a few! These evergreen songs are interspersed with
anecdotes and amusing stories relating to the shows they came from.
Anthony Stonier is
one of KZN's most popular singer/actors and has won Best Male Vocalist at the
Durban Theatre Awards three times. This show sold out at The Hilton Arts
Festival in September 2014.
