UNLOCKED WITH THE GEEJAYS


(Grant Bell, Marion Loudon & John Didlick)

If ever there was a time to let loose and have some fun, it is now!

Coming up at Rhumbelow Theatre this weekend (September 18-20, 2020) are the GeeJays - Grant Bell, Marion Loudon and John Didlick – in Unlocked.

After enduring over one hundred and fifty days of Lockdown, running out of booze and ciggies, missing friends and family, dealing with fake news, corruption, social distancing and coming to terms with the “new normal”, it’s time to break from the shackles and have some fun.

The Gee Jays has the antidote: and the recipe is simple: fun and laughter with friends and family. The Gee Jays have been dishing out this remedy for over three decades and this offering won’t disappoint.  Expect to enjoy songs from great artists such as ABBA, Elvis, Neil Diamond, Frank Sinatra, Phil Collins, The Temptations, Nat King Cole, Dean Martin, Aretha Franklin, The Beatles, The Bee Gees, Michael BublĂ©, Elton John, Queen and many more. The Gee Jays are famous for their song parodies, tongue in cheek humour and tight harmonies.

The show offers entertainment that will take the weight off your shoulders and put a smile on your dial, so break free and join the Gee Jays at Rhumbelow Theatre.

Performances take place on September 18 at 19h00 and on September 19 at 14h00 and 19h00. The Sunday show is sold out. (Venue opens 60 minutes before show for snacks/drinks) Arrive early as there will also be some pre-show fun from  18.45.
