Hugely
popular radio, theatre and film star, Maeshni Naicker (Keeping Up With The Kandasamys, Broken Promises, Florida Road, Curse of
Highway Sheila) makes her debut solo appearance in Salon Sue, a bubbly new comedy about hair stylists and their
clients.
Written
and directed by Clinton Marius, the production will be presented at Sibaya’s
iZulu Theatre from July 28 to 30, 2017, by Copy Dog, the multi-award winning
production house behind a string of stage hits, including Lollipop Lane, B!*ch Stole My Doek and Mystic Twisters, among others.
“Salon Sue is a jolly tumble through a
working day in a small hair salon, showcasing the extraordinary versatility of
this much-loved actress,” says Marius: “I love working with Maeshni. Her
contribution to my radio drama, Lollipop
Lane, which aired on Lotus FM for four years, was a highlight of the show’s
appeal with thousands of listeners who tuned in for their daily dose of comedy
on air. Maeshni’s unerring gift for delivering a comic line to perfection
proved itself onstage as well, when I brought two of my plays, Ladies of Lollipop Lane and Mystic Twisters to Sibaya in recent
seasons. Audiences adore her, and they can expect a real firecracker with Salon Sue.”
“I am
looking forward to my first solo stage production,” says Naicker. “Clinton has
a great eye and ear for comedy, and together we are going to bring you a
crazy-beautiful show.”
