Last night I was invited to the media and opening night for the
Rhythms The Gumboots Show.
On Tuesday I released an article on what to anticipate from the show
but since I went there yesterday I can tell you that it is what I wrote and more.
The set, the shows storytelling and the movement of the Gumboots dancers was out of this world.
When I told my friends that we are going to see a Gumboots Show on Thursday night
they were a bit skeptical but after the show they were like
'yep the shows production level, energy from the dancers was close to perfection'.
The world is not back to where it was January 2020 however places
are opening up and I'm glad that the Lyric Theatre at Gold Reef City is now open.
WHAT THE SHOW IS ALL ABOUT
Back in 1871, miners came up with their own language.
It was the language of the gumboots and it is brought back to life in this physical performance,
a historical tale featuring authentic traditional South African dancing and singing.
Rhythms - The Gumboot Show will be live on stage at
5pm and 8pm on Friday, 13 November
and 2pm and 8pm on Saturday, 14 November.
Bookings via Computicket
tickets from R150pp.
See you there!
