There is still time to book your spot and
celebrate Christmas this year with Durban’s most festive family – the dolphins
at uShaka Marine World who will be performing their dazzling aquatic aerobatics
and adding a special sparkle to everyone’s end of year celebrations.
Themed “Under the African Skies”, this
year’s eagerly anticipated annual Dolphins
by Starlight show has a vibrant homegrown feel, paying homage to the beauty
of Africa, its people and song. Both the audience and Santa himself can
experience traditional Christmas songs reworked with vibrant African rhythms
and can look forward to rousing renditions of popular hits such as A Million Dreams, A World in Union, Can You
Feel the Love, Special Star and Quincy Jones’ soulful version of the Hallelujah Chorus.
Although the uShaka dolphins always steal
the show, they’ll be cheered on by pop sensation Lusandra Majola and an
operatic prodigy as well as the Durban Gospel Choir, the Glenwood Junior
Primary School Choir and the dynamic vocal stylings of isicathamiya group,
Young Mambazo. The exhilarating contemporary dance troupe, the Kangaroo Zulu
Warriors, and a live band under the baton of Burton Naidoo will add extra local
sparkle.
This year, Dolphins by Starlight will be hosted by well-known theatre
personalities, Mpume Mthombeni and Daisy Spencer.
Last chance to make it there between now
and December 13, the uShaka Marine World Dolphin Stadium will be filled with a
special Christmas spirit and a strong message that encapsulates hope, faith,
the value of family and friends, joy, peace, kindness, forgiveness and love.
Dolphins
by Starlight is one family treat that you don't
want to miss this festive season, so don't delay, book today!
The last show takes place tomorrow (December 13,
2018) at 19h00. Gates open at 18h30. Tickets R199 (R160 children/seniors) available
