GEORGY PORGY

 

Loosely based on the short story by Roald Dahl, directed by Peter Court and performed by Thomie Holtzhausen, Georgy Porgy heralds the hysterical history of George.

George’s childhood and especially his memories and experiences of his rather “liberal” mother have made George exactly who he is today … a platteland vicar in a small female dominated parish in the Free State.

George has a rather idiosyncratic view of the opposite sex. 

He considers women beautiful, aloof and alluring but they reside upon pedestals high above common man.


But women are also curious, very curious … especially about George’s vows of abstinence and celibacy. Women find this fact a fascinating mystery … and what woman can resist a good mystery…?

Produced by ItsTaboo Productions, Georgy Porgy has one performance on August 30, 2024, at Seabrooke’s Theatre, DHS, in St Thomas Road, Musgrave.

Doors open at 19h00 and the show starts at 19h30. A cash bar is available.

Tickets from R130. Booking is at Quicket
