The uncommon combustible clash of breeding and
culture pits drummer-comedian Fabbri’s dynamic drumming and guitar-playing
against Von Memerty’s pyrotechnic piano-ism, resulting in a roller-coaster of
musical contradictions which will have you rolling on the floor and rocking in
the aisles.
Their mismatched machinations sees ‘the ‘battle
of the twits’ moving effortlessly from Rock to Rocky Horror, Boeremusiek to Broadway and Country to Classical,
even sharing a masterclass on how not to look sexy on the dance-floor along the
way. When these two explosive talents combine, hilarity ensues and
stomach-muscles are given a strenuous work-out as two witty and beloved
entertainers take merciless pot shots at each other in the guise of their
alter-egos. To quote one dazzled and delighted reviewer “I laughed myself a
six-pack”.
Common & Class runs at the Elizabeth
Sneddon Theatre from February 6 to 17, 2019. Tickets are on sale through
Computicket.
