Shimmying and boogying back on to stage, Shall We Dance returns for its 31st year to the Opera Theatre’s stage at The Playhouse from September 12 to 14, 2025..

Durban’s amateur dance world collides in this dazzling, glitzy dance extravaganza with dance schools and studios from Durban and surrounds, entertaining audiences for five jampacked colourful shows. 

Included in the line-ups are professional Latin couple, Darren Hammond and Marina Steshenko. Hammond is no stranger to the Durban stage, having made various guest artist appearances over the years.

This year the show will include everything from Ballroom, Latin, Indian, Modern, Ballet with a few special numbers by MC Lisa Bobbert and her team from the International School of Performing Arts. Celebrating its 50th milestone, Chicago the Musical, Shall We Dance will play homage to this world-class Broadway show.

The show runs from September 12 to 14 in The Playhouse Opera.
