POETRY IN MUSIC


(Dawn Selby; Colin Peddie; Barry Thomson; Jason Andrew; Samantha Landers & Mali Sewell)

It's Back.... Poetry in Music returns to Tina's.


Rhumbelow Theatre at Tina’s Hotel in Kloof are currently presenting Poetry In Music over this weekend and the next.

This show comes from the team that brought you The Chain – The Fleetwood Mac story. Featuring Durban’s finest tribute band, The Reals, the line-up is augmented by the ever-inspiring Samantha Landers and guitarist Colin Peddie. You just know this is a winning formula.

Devised by Colin Peddie, the show will showcase material which is more lyrically driven but without losing the punch which accompanies popular music. The programme features work by artists like The Eagles, Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen, Mumford and Sons, Paul Simon and many more.

Integrating the use of AV and sound bites and the live elements, Poetry in Music intend to take you on a musical journey of thought provoking poetry and foot stomping music.

The show was devised by Colin Peddie who also performs (guitar/vocal). The line-up features Music Director Dawn Selby (keys/vocal) with Barry Thomson (guitar/vocal), Mali Sewell (drums/vocal); Jason Andrew (bass/vocal) and Samantha Landers (vocal)

Performances take place from November 2 to 4 and again from November 9 to 11 with Friday and Saturday shows at 20h00 and Sundays at 14h00. (The theatre venue opens 90 minutes before show for drinks)
