Lisa Bobbert, Liesl Coppin and Marion
Loudon re-visit one of their favourite shows, The Glitter Girls at the Rhumbelow Theatre at Tina’s Hotel in Kloof
from July 12 to 14, 2019.
These multi-award-winning performers are
Durban’s most loved and versatile artists. Together they are a formidable femme de force who not only light up the
stage but have the audience eating out of the palms of their manicured hands.
All three are natural comics that keep the audience in stitches with
performances that can only be described as “irrepressible”!
Anyone remember Pac-man ... The Rubic cube
and Dallas? Yip, 1989 was a special
year. These three trend-busting Glitter Girls have to go back! Back to neon,
back to big hair and back to high school -Scottburgh High for their 30-year
school reunion!
All three are absolute charmers and are
previous recipients of the coveted Mercury Durban Theatre Personality of the
Year Award. You don't have to be an Eighties child to enjoy this light-hearted
and highly entertaining musical comedy.
The
Glitter Girls won the 2014 Mercury Durban Theatre
Award for Best Musical Review. This comedy hinges around a 30-year school
reunion and includes songs from the 80s right up to today with hits from
Bananarama, Eurythmics, Rihanna, Madonna and Abba, Pink and Meghan Trainor.
The absolute highlight of the show is when
the girls gender-bend into their alter-egos; Kenny de la Mare, ex South Coast
stud who, 30 years on, still lives with his mom in a Wendy house; Ruben
Lipshitz, still a fatty but has made a lot of money in Joburg and returns to
see his old friends on the South Coast; and John Grey, ex-head boy of
Scottburgh High, who has lost his hair and been unlucky in love. These dudes
are underscored by the unmistakable backbeat of Duran Duran, Rick Ashley and
Wham and Bruno Mars.
Shows runs from July 12 to 14 with
performances on Friday and Saturday at 20h00 and on Sunday at 14h00. (Venue
opens 60 minutes before show for drinks)
