A ROCKING WORLD TOUR AT ROCKWOOD THEATRE


This September, the world is diverse and so is its music and this is exactly what A Rocking World Tour will showcase at the Rockwood Theatre at Sibaya. The music may be something different, something new or something known, but it will definitely feed a passion for music. So let your guard down, throw away the mundane day to day routine of life and get to see how the world loves it music through its diversity, flavours, costumes, rhythm and beat. The ‘next bend’ may be on another continent!

The tour starts in Australasia where some great bands and singers took the world by storm. INXS, AC/DC, Men at Work and Crowded House to name a few, showed that they may be far from the rest of the world, but they can rock Down Under!

Spin the globe and stop on Africa. Here you can enjoy the unique sounds of a continent where mankind was born. Magnificent in beauty, diverse in culture but united in the love of music, homebred stars like Johnny Clegg, Brenda Fassie, Freshly Ground and Johannes Kerkorrel portray exactly this. Not only local talent showcased South African music, but some of the world’s biggest stars such as Paul Simon and Toto also took inspiration from Africa and produced some iconic hits.

Without spinning, we move up the globe to Europe and party to Sweden’s Roxette, Holland’s sax Ace Candy Dulfar, Norway’s A-Ha, Greece’s Vangelis,  Spain’s Enrique Iglesius and the Gypsy Kings, France’s Daft Punk, Italy’s Andrea Bocelli and Eiffel 65. Then off the mainland to Britain and the newer sound of Her Majesty’s artists like George Michael, Ed Sheeran, Adele and the Northern Sounds of Scotland’s Proclaimers. The European tour continues south to Ireland where we celebrate Sinead O’Conner, dance to Lord of the Dance and sing with Ireland’s greatest Boybands before heading even further south to Wales. Famed for the most beautiful voices on the British Isles and where the valleys inspired Tom Jones, Shirley Bassey and bright young stars like Catherine Jenkins.
