(Lilly
Slaptsilli)
Shenanigans - female impersonator, Lilly Slaptsilli, serves up lashings of
laughter, music and mischief tackling a dozen or more favourite musical icons
at the Rhumbelow Theatre in Durban. The show is a celebration of female
vocalists from around the world. Her playlist reads like a Hollywood guest
list.
Shenanigans starring Lilly Slaptsilli runs from February 22 to 24, 2019, and is
a camp comedic romp for audiences of all sexualities and perversions.
Sassy Slaptsilli truly has the gift of
comic timing as she pays lip synch service to a bevy of icons such as Carol
Burnett, Whoopi Goldberg, Tina Turner and Pam Ann.
Another strong aspect of the production are
the hilarious video skits played during costume changes. The consistent level
of dedication to their craft is what made them survive where many others have
failed. Expect a frisky mix of humour, dance, music and fashion – with an
insider wink on socio-political pop culture. And Outback-Barbie types beware:
Lilly can spot a Foschini or Markhams wardrobe a mile away!
Lilly Slaptsilli invites audiences to enjoy
a spectacular evening of wall-to-wall entertainment. Sometimes crude, sometimes
comical, sometimes crass – but always classy!
Lilly Slaptsilli, one half of the legendary
drag duo, Mince. also starring Kieran Legacy originally masterminded by David
Kramer in 1995 for the DK Rd Theatre, then became the resident show at On
Broadway for more than 17 years, has become an institution, travelled extensively
locally and abroad, and even morphed into an Afrikaans version (Fop Jou Hier,
Dos Jou Daar) for the Klein Karoo National Arts Festival in 2011.
