Aweh, find out what's happening in Durbs
Another eventful weekend is on the cards for those looking for entertainment around Durban. The city has concerts, comedy shows and markets to suit all taste buds. To find out what's happening in Durbs, see the list of events below: Elvis has left the building The sweet sounds of music will reverberate loudly at the Rhumbelow Theatre when the cinema screening of Elvis has left the building is aired at the intimate venue at 42 Cunningham Road, on Monday, June 2, from 18:30 in honour of the late Jaziel Vaugh'hann. The slick music compilation featuring Belinda Dolphin, Junaid Cassimjee and Lorraine McVean, who also directed the show, slides smoothly from one number to the next while engaging the audience. The trio, on certain performances, are accompanied by Kerwin Robert on sax and guitar, and the two dancers, Keandre Brahim and Nicole Dolphin. Roland Stansell of Rhumbelow Theatre said the three singers performed individually and in combination, their voices blending beautifully when singing together. He praised Robert, who performed to excellent backing tracks, as 'the saxophonist blended in as if the band was behind him'. The show relies on their talent and there is minimal voice-over narration. 'It's performed on a bare, opulently-curtained stage with newly-acquired lighting. The production is visually enhanced by many costume changes, so that there is never a dull moment. These in no way detract from the quality of the singing and full use is also made of the area in front of the stage. The lighting and follow spots are spot on (no pun intended),' said Stansell. 'From the resounding opening number American Trilogy, other highlights are Everybody Hurts (Lorraine McVean), Volare (Belinda Dolphin), Unforgettable (Junaid Cassimjee, Lorraine McVean), All the Way (Junaid Cassimjee and Belinda Dolphin as Frank Sinatra and Celine Dion), and especially the Elvis Presley medleys which include All Shook Up, Blue Suede Shoes, Devil in Disguise, Jailhouse Rock, Teddy Bear and Hound Dog. Particularly enjoyable were a take-off of Amy Winehouse by Junaid Cassimjee in drag and Belinda Dolphin in Zulu dress singing Ndhamba Nawe, both of which brought the house down.' Entry to witness the screening of this showcase is R50 and can be purchased via Webtickets or by emailing roland@ Picnic baskets are allowed. There is limited secure parking at the venue. Booking is essential. For more information call 082 499 8636. 031 Theatre Festival brings the laughs The 031 Theatre Festival is once again bringing the laughs to The Seabrookes Theatre at Durban High School with the likes of Lisa Bobbert and Ben Voss set to take to the stage from Friday, June 6, to Sunday, June 8. The third annual theatre festival, spearheaded by Bobbert and Aaron McIlroy (Macbob Productions) and Michael Broderick (Theatresmiths), will feature various productions that are performing at this year's National Arts Festival in Makhanda / Grahamstown. The programme features two comedy dramas (I Can Buy Myself Flowers; Becoming Benno), one improv show (Comedy Games), a cabaret (Ethel) and two musical comedies (ADHD; Date Night). I Can Buy Myself Flowers, taking its name from Miley Cyrus' anthem for single women, is a one-woman show by acclaimed Cape Town actress Erika Breytenbach. It's a comedy drama telling the story of Natalie Jackson, an estate agent in her 50s, who entertains as she reflects on the ups and downs of relationships, children, professional life and her women friendships. Following phenomenal success at the Adelaide International Festival in Australia, Fleur du Cap & Best of the Adelaide Fest award winner Ben Voss brings Becoming Benno to his home ground, South Africa. In this internationally acclaimed heartfelt comedy, Ben is detained by border officials at Sydney Airport due to an issue with his Permanent Residency Visa. Will he be admitted or sent back to SA? Bobbert presents Ethel, her latest one-woman cabaret tribute to the Queen of Musical Theatre – the incomparable Ethel Merman, whose voice defined Broadway. The one-woman musical celebrates Merman's life, legacy, powerful voice and iconic performances in classic Broadway musicals. The 031 Theatre Festival is set to conclude on a high note with the hilarious musical comedy, Date Night, starring McIlroy and Bobbert on Sunday at 18:00. Festival tickets range from R130 to R150 and can be purchased via Webtickets.
