(Veranda Panda)
Art, theatre, dance and music will collide in the heart of
Durban when Over Exposed takes centre
stage at the Rivertown Shed from January 26 to 28 at 19h00 for 19h30.
Presented by the irrepressible creative David Gouldie, this
site-specific interactive performance experience will culminate in a party
reminiscent of the heady days of the DDC after-parties at the harbour’s N-Shed.
Expect the unexpected as Gouldie and a cast of Durban’s
hottest and most daring performers and DJs take you on a sensory journey,
taking a dash of inspiration from Springbok Radio’s iconic Squad Cars – and much more.
The nostalgia culminates after the gala performance on January
28 when the venue transforms into a massive warehouse party featuring some of
the country and city’s most exciting acts. Headlined by Crazy White Boy, Sound
Language and Veranda Panda, the line-up will also include 330 legend Martin
McHale and DJs Funky B, Craig Rude, Cathy Machale, Madlove, DJ Rooinek and Coco
Loco.
“The venue at 130 Stalwart Simelane (Stanger) Street will be
transformed into a mad and breathtaking world of sensory stimulation overload,”
said Gouldie. “For three days only, around 60 of Durban’s hottest artists will
come out to play, so plug in your chargers and get your lipstick ready!”
In a unique theatre experience, guests will be taken on a
360 degree multi-media journey of discovery incorporating six stages,
television sets and 12 projector screens.
“It will be like being in a movie – fully interactive and
packed with surprises,” said Gouldie. “It is about making art in the city that
breeds cutting-edge talent. I live, love and breathe Durban and this is a
celebration of its creative community – everyone is lending a hand to make this
happen.”

Crazy White Boy’s music has been described as a blend of
kwaito and house rhythms with elements of electro, which the duo has coined as
“Ghetto Tech”. Their music has earned them multiple gold and platinum selling
albums and a Sama nomination for Song of the Year for their hit single Love you Better.
Dynamic Durban duo Veranda Panda, featuring an exciting
synergy of violin and electronica, are a hot Durban dance favourite, while Cape
Town outfit Sound Language promise to rock the city with their serious beats.
