He was born at the Royal Family of Maphindani which is part of the Mdluli Clan, the forebearing claimants of the Kruger National Park Land where his Grandfather, Ngotsa, who partnered with Ngungunyane in the 1800 century fought the portuegese domination of the North and he owned very large Parts of Kruger Nationak Park.

EXHIBITION
A Place to Call Their Own
BY RAYMOND DAKOUA
OPENING 19/01/2017

GOETHE-INSTITUT, 119 JAN SMUTS AVENUE, PARKWOOD 2193

18:30 Artist in conversation with Barbara Cote D'ivoire (Cote d’Ivoire) and Sabelo Mlangeni (SA). Moderated by Jabulani Pereira

20:00 Opening of Exhibition

Homosexuality has long been a taboo in many societies. Of the ten countries that still punish this "forbidden" love with a death sentence, four are on the African continent.

As Belgian-Ivorian photographer Raymond Dakoua points out: “nevertheless, LGBTpeople try to live their lives as freely and happily as they can”. In this new body of work, Dakoua explores LGBT realities in two countries that have recently decriminalized homosexuality, or do not legislate it: Mozambique and Ivory Coast.

“As a straight photographer I felt drawn into this subject, as the number of LGBTpolitical refugees in Belgium is fast growing. These people had no choice but to leave their countries of origin, so I wanted to explore the realities they left behind. The result is a journey into mostly unknown territory.”

More information on www.raymonddakoua.com.

Bios:

Raymond Dakoua, who was born in Cote d’Ivoire, but has lived many years in Brussels, graduated in Photography and Accounting from École Agnes Varda in Brussels in 2002. In 2003, he founded the collective Luna, together with six other photographers. A few years later, he and two colleagues founded the association Un Autre Regard (Another Glance). Preoccupied by the perseverance of tradition and the evolution of culture and social life, the photographer looks at various topics relating to humans, incl. social, political, ecological, religious and geographical aspects of life. Dakoua also works for humanitarian organisations such as The Red Cross, Handicap International. The GoodPlanet Foundation and Veterinarians Without Borders.

Barbara is a trans activist from the Ivory Coast, currently residing in France. Having participated in the launch of the Association of Transvestites of Côte d'Ivoire and been the head of one of the first movements to defend the rights of homosexuals and transsexuals in Africa in the nineties, Barbara continues work with the organization Woubi International, which seeks to present people of colour in the LGBTI community. Barbara became well-known in her home country and internationally when she participated in the production of the documentary film ‘Woubi cheri’, directed by Laurent Bocahut and Peter Brooks in 1998.

Sabelo Mlangeni was born in 1980 in Driefontein near Wakkerstroom in Mpumalanga. In 2001 he moved to Johannesburg where he joined the Market Photo Workshop, graduating in 2004. He won the POPCAP'16 prize for Contemporary African Photography and the Tollman Award for the Visual Arts in 2009. Recent solo projects include Heartbreaker at artSPACE in Ackland, New Zealand (2016). Recent group exhibitions include Rise and Fall of Apartheid: Photography and the Bureaucracy of Everyday Life at Museum Africa, Johannesburg (extended until 30 April 2015); Distance and Desire: Encounters with the African Archive at the Walther Collection in Ulm, Germany (2013-2014).

When Swallows Cry: Migration Dialogues panel discussion

The Market Theatre and Daily Maverick will co-host a panel discussion on the theme of migration and refugees on Thursday 19 January before and after the performance of When Swallows Cry.

The aims of the discussion are to highlight issues of inequality, human empathy and government policies related to international mobility, particularly in the light of rising national chauvinism, xenophobia, security concerns and political intolerance of migrants and to talk about the role of the arts and artists in exploring this theme.

When Swallows Cry was commissioned by a Norwegian theatre company, Ibsen International, which invited eight playwrights from around the world to write new works on the theme of migration. The Market Theatre is the first to produce one of these works.

Elinor Sisulu will facilitate the panel discussion which will include Marc Gbaffou, Chairperson of the African Diaspora Forum and the Executive Director of the Goethe Institute for Southern Africa, Dr Norbert Spitz. With the play having been commissioned by Ibsen International, Ambassador Trine Skymoen from the Norwegian Embassy will open the proceedings.

The panel discussion starts at 18:30 for 18:45, followed by a viewing of the play from 20:15, after which the panellists, the director and the writer will continue the discussion, with the evening ending at 22:15. The Theatre bar will remain open for those who wish to continue to engage informally with the panellists and creative team.

The discussion will take place in the Gramadoelas Room at the main entrance of the theatre.

Tickets for the play are available at R95 each from www.webtickets.co.za or through the theatre’s box office 011-8381641. Attendance at the discussion is free.

The discussion and the performance will be filmed and broadcast from an appropriate platform in the future.

For more information and to RSVP, contact Thato Kobile at thatok@markettheatre.co.za or 011-8321641.

Proudly brought to you by Cactus Jack Tequila

The show brings to the fore elements of cultural expression which, inter alia include praise poetry, the use of totems and the expression of African identity and distinctiveness with an understanding that cultural expression shifts with social context, with new forms bleeding into older forms, explained the show Executive Producer, Tlokwe Sehume. He also added that the show brings to life this very essential part of the narrative, which is the use of two of the most primary elements of conversation - language and music. The Market Theatre Artistic Director, Mr James Ngcobo said “we are delighted to finally host the legendary Tlokwe Sehume at the Market Theatre, the Village Square musical show forms part of our broader celebration of the 40 years anniversary celebration of the Market Theatre, which at the core – we showcase our musical identity and distinctiveness, we regard Tlokwe Sehume as one of the South Africa’s most diverse African contemporary and African classical musicians”. He is the founder of Medu Nakeng Foundation Trust, which its work is essential for the nurturing of the very rich culture of African indigenous-classical music and strive to coincide with UNESCO’s mission statement “the flourishing of arts and culture and sustainable development are interdependent. Ngcobo added. The show tickets are now on sale ranging from R120 on Thursday opening night, the Friday and Saturday at R 200 for adults only and R140 on Sunday afternoon. Tickets are on sale at the Market Theatre box office, web-tickets online and Pick n Pay (web ticket system) said the Production manager, Mr Mandla Maseko.

King of Town is back in town!

Paul Holden, otherwise know as King of Town, was one of the original Melville Tokyo Star Indie Thursdays resident DJs and also one of the founders of the infamous The Secret parties. A freelance writer, researcher, and historian, he now resides in London.

He first got noticed for his remix of Desmond And The Tutus' "Kiss You On The Cheek" by Parisian label Tigersushi.

Since then his work has been in demand from labels like Optimo Music, Thisnotanexit, Domino and Moshi Moshi, producing for the the likes of They Came From The Stars, Detachments, Franz Ferdinand, Slow Club, The Phenomenal Handclap Band, Space System, Silver Columns and Loose Fit.

On a more personal note, he was a huge influence on our own Data Takashi, getting him into DJing in the first place. Suffice to say, Disco De Moda would probably not have come to be without him.

We are super stoked to catch him with a visit to his homeland!

Lineup times to be announced.

Cover: Free - R50+ based on capacity and vibe.

A historic moment for a forgotten African classic, now restored and back on a big screen!

2017 will see Joe Bullet be commercially released on DVD in the UK, USA and RSA. This is a historic moment for South African film, and we would like to give audiences the opportunity to experience the film on the Big Screen.

Joe Bullet (1973)

When local soccer team The Eagles fall prey to a series of onslaughts from a mysterious gangster only a week before the championship final, the team turns to the one man that can help save their chances at victory – Joe Bullet (Ken Gampu).

Joe will have to battle against villainous henchmen, escape booby-trap bombs and bring his martial arts expertise to the fore in order to survive an attack from a deadly assassin.

In the end he will have to infiltrate the mysterious gangster’s hide-out in a dangerous cat-and- mouse rescue mission to save not only The Eagles’ two kidnapped star players, but that of his beautiful love interest, Beauty (Abigail Kubeka). The odds will be stacked against him, but he’s the man that fights crime, the man that no one can tie down!Joe Bullet!

January is generally crazy for most of us and after the first few whirlwind weeks have passed, we can’t think of a better way to take a breather than our second concert of 2017.

The artists performing at De Waal Park on 22 January are bound to melt away any back-to-work, back-to-school stresses and will help you unwind and relax. Don’t be fooled into thinking there’ll be any ‘snooze music’ in the line-up, however; not with the artists we’ve got lined up for you. Of course, snoozing is totally optional, but good luck with that, as the music is guaranteed to be of exceptional volume and be rather vibey… so when we say unwind and relax, we mean dancing, jumping (if that’s your thing), singing along and generally having a wonderful time, in a beautiful setting with friends and family… for FREE!

ARD MATHEWS

For (almost) the last two decades, well-known singer and songwriter, Ard Matthews, has been amazing audiences and music lovers all over the world with his indelible songs . As the front man and lead singer of South African band Just Jinjer, his unforgettable lyrics and melody arrangements led the way to the outstanding success of their debut album titled, ‘All Comes Round’, which became one of the biggest selling rock genre albums of all time in SA.

Travelling all over the world with Just Jinjer, Ard and the band wowed audiences across Europe, Australia, and the United States, until they settled in Los Angeles for eight years, where they signed an international recording deal with Curb Records. While in LA, they played at some of the most popular and influential clubs and festivals before deciding to return to SA in 2009.

Mathews released his debut solo album in 2012 to critical acclaim and subsequently teamed up with South African folk icon Vusi Mahlasela for his track ‘Umuntu’. He now plays regularly as a solo act, as well as still fronting Just Jinjer, often times collaborating with well-known and talented musicians on bass guitar and drums and performing at many of SA’s music festivals.

AL BAIRRE

Al Bairre is a Cape Town based, four-piece symphonic indie pop band comprising of Nicholas Preen, Kyle Davis and twins Julia and Tessa Johnson.

They launched in 2012 and take inspiration from indie stalwarts such as Arcade Fire, Ra Ra Riot, Vampire Weekend and Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeroes. They say their goal was to turn indie pop into an “ice cream of orchestral sounds”. Combining cellos, violins, guitars, ukeleles and drums, they certainly do achieve a multi-layered (or is that multi-flavoured?), accessible indie-pop sound. Orchestral ice-cream with a cherry-pop on top – now what could be better for a sunny Sunday afternoon?

ALBERT FROST

Keeping things super-cool, but with red-hot riffs, is guitarist extraordinaire, Albert Frost. With his roots planted firmly in the blues, Frost played with the Blues Broers for 21 years, recording five albums with them. He has also performed with other SA greats such as Arno Carstens and Koos Kombuis as well as international artists such as Finlay Quay, R.E.M, Simple Minds and has supported the Rolling Stones.

April 2016 saw the release of his much anticipated third solo album, The Wake Up, which, according to Frost, was the “start of a new journey” for him. Departing from his blues tradition, The Wake Up explores various musical genres and lyrical content resulting, he says, in an unexpected album that will surprise and delight his fans. Well, we’re delighted to have him open for us with his mesmerising guitar riffs on the 22nd of January!

The afternoon kicks off with a funky, grooving Jazz and Jazz-fusion set by the house band.

JazzNowJozi! wants the up and coming young talent in primary and highschools to start emerging from their caves. 18 and under? Love Jazz and hungry to play and be heard? We want you! Come up and jam, learn, play and connect with other musicians similar to you as well as with professional musicians. Our initiative is aimed at developing the Jazz Youth in the city and making a place for young developing players and vocalists to have a say, to take the stage and to learn and grow! Bring your instruments, your attitude, your ears and your heart and of course your sound ;)

Professional musicians, come up and jam and connect with the new Jazz youth. It's all about community and learning!

There is place for both beginner and advanced juniors. Beginners will play on more groove based improvisations and advanced students are welcome to bring charts through of standards you really want to get heard and Jam with professional musicians.

THE CATS

Our space is also a home for the more well-seasoned Jazz musicians who want to come through and Jam! Bring your instruments and your charts. Normal backline will be provided. We want to make beautiful, groovy music together and to create a stronger interaction and sense of communication and community in our industry.

Music lovers, friends, family, parents, please come along and support and listen and eat, drink and soak in the beautiful music. The Factory on Grant is a brilliant, safe, warm and beautiful venue with delicious coffee, drinks and food to set up this intimate connection of musicians and music lovers.

Price-wise, this is a community project. The musicians you will see are some of the best in the country and sometimes even in the world. We don't get paid a lot of money to keep this project running and to play and so we have created THE JAM JAR! Your contribution is upto you and your enjoyment. Every contribution is greatly appreciated and keeps us going! You help keep our initiative and our community alive :)

Please come and support our incredibly exciting initiative! We have a passion for the arts, education, music and community in our city and in our country and we want to create a space to share that love and spread it!

Banner Design by Mari-Zanne van Staden

A tragi-comedy about friendship, racism, decolonization (and reading) on the wrong side of the rainbow.

Twenty years have passed since the 1980’s Struggle, and when three men used to live and work together. Over time they have gone their separate ways and much has changed. On a summer’s evening in Melville, they come together to launch a book club where they are joined by the daughter of a former woman comrade. She brings something from the past with her, and as the evening progresses different revelations shake the foundations of all their relationships.

They are all on the edge. Each has weaknesses. There are no innocents.

These people are Vish Naidoo (Luversan Gerard), a divorced, Indian businessman/deal-maker; Stanton de Villiers (Craig Morris), a white, gay man of Afrikaner ancestry who is a consultant to the new government and is the host for the evening; Mncedisi Julius Matanzima (Pule Hlatswayo), a black consciousness activist involved in youth development; and Cornelia Williams (Campbell Meas), a young Coloured primary school teacher and feminist.

Jann Weeratunga was born in London in 1963. She has lived and worked in London, UK: Sri Lanka: UAE and Bahrain. Currently she lives in Johannesburg, South Africa.

She was a Primary School Teacher and a Scout/Cub Leader for over 20 years. This she feels was a very good grounding for what Middle Grade Readers enjoy reading about.

Polly’s Piralympics is the fifth children’s book she has written and was inspired by the closing ceremony of the 2012 London Paralympic Games. In his closing speech, Sir Phillip Craven told of how a young boy was reading with his mother. In the book he saw a man with an eye patch, a hook for a hand, a parrot on his shoulder and a wooden leg. When asked who it was, he said: “Well he has only one leg, so he must be an Olympian.” Such was the strength of the London 2012 Paralympics that it changed peoples’ perceptions of disability forever. The speech made her both laugh and cry and gave her the inspiration for this series of books which are both unique in concept as well as content.

Other books are: The Magic Vuvuzela (re: soccer and South Africa) and Peter’s Wimbledon Dreams (re: tennis and the UK) both self-published through Amazon.

Tane’s Rugby Dream (re: Rugby and New Zealand) and Cricket Crazy (re: cricket and Sri Lanka) and as yet unpublished.

She has also written over 100 poems published on the voicesnet.com website under Jan Weeratunga.

Lunchtime Debate

Museal Episode - On the Global Future of Museums

Admission: Free

“Do museums today continue to be appropriate spaces for the presentation, documentation, mediation and archiving, or even for interaction between observer and object?”

Museal Episode brings museum directors, curators and professionals in related fields from several countries together in an exchange. The four-day meeting will take place four times over a period of three years in different countries and is set to develop new models of presentation, mediation and dialogue.

This iteration staged in Johannesburg and Cape Town will further engage some of the questions posed at the first meeting in Salvador da Bahia (Brazil) and Santa Cruz/ La Paz (Bolivia): looking at ways to decolonize and democratize museums, as well as thinking through community involvement in such endeavors.

The talk is a way for the public to engage with the closed session meetings.

Chimurenga Renaissance is Tendai ‘Baba’ Maraire of Seattle hip-hop duo Shabazz Palaces (Sub Pop) and Hussein Kalonji.

The duo released their debut LP, "riZe vadZimu riZe" in 2014 featuring guest appearances from THEESatisfaction, Dead Prez member M1 and Mall Saint, a more traditional hip hop arrangement than Shabazz Palaces’ usual sound, but still includes Maraire’s recognisable percussion and kalimba sounds.

“We were ordained to build a bridge strong enough to span oceans, but don’t fall off. Under the waters, we’re waiting with paws each larger than the head of a lion, rows of teeth, and jaws stronger than a Megaladon. Together, we are the black leviathan, panther of the deep.”

The night will be supported by BLK JKS SNDSYSTM, DJ Danger Ingozi, YANOSS, Chi (Pungwe Nights), Mma Tseleng (Keleketla! Library) and Maria McCloy.

The Hey Now, HEY NOW NOW concert comprises over two and a half hours of eighties alternative music with a commercial foundation. The repertoire includes medleys of the awesome songs by the great bands (Depeche Mode, REM, Duran Duran, INXS, Billy Idol, U2, Simple Minds etc) of the era, along with the huge hits the slightly darker bands had. A cutting edge 80’s rock show that celebrates and pays tribute to the best alternative rock bands of the decade! Fans can look forward to hearing the mega-hits of the decade such as Love Will Tear Us Apart by Joy Division, Just Like Heaven by The Cure, Blister In The Sun by Violent Femmes, Blue Monday by New Order and Should I Stay Or Should I Go by The Clash together with the huge chart toppers that Depeche Mode enjoyed in their golden era, like Personal Jesus, , People Are People, A Question of Time, and more! The show was conceptualised in 2014 by Danny de Wet (ex Wonderboom, eVoid & Petit Cheval), to fulfil the need for an 80’s tribute show that focused on presenting the myriad of huge ‘unconventional’ chart topping hits that alternative bands of the era enjoyed. Named after the chorus of The Sisters of Mercy anthem This Corrosion, Hey Now, HEY NOW NOW was an instant hit, due to both the excellent material on offer, and vocal talents of Dee Phoenix (Seven Side Story), Danny De Wet (also on percussion) & Quinton Lotter (on drums too), together with the kick-ass band of Justin Hart on bass guitar, keyboard wiz Mark Wilson and guitarists Mark Kenyon & Darren Drawbridge. Sold out runs on the Barnyard Theatre circuit led to the production being booked for a Carnival City New Year’s Eve celebration, as well as making a cameo appearances at a charity events hosted at the Hard Rock Cafe in Sandton & the Mix 93,8FM “Come Together” fundraiser. Over the 2015 Easter Weekend in April , the revue performed at 6 shows at Sun City and at the end of May hosted the Le Club Reunion which featured No Friends Of Harry and Ashton Nyte (The Awakening) More excitement for the cast in 2015 when two international acts invited Hey Now, HEY NOW NOW to be special guests on their SA tours and everyone’s favourite alternative production proudly shared a stage with Dilana (Rock Star Supernova) and Wayne Hussey (The Mission). In May 2016, after an appearance on the main stage of the Splashy Fen Festival and a sold out show at the Barnyard Theatre in Durban, Hey Now, HEY NOW NOW returned to Gauteng, to host yet another sold out special called “Depeche Mode vs Hey Now”. The production followed this with recent performances at the Barnyard Theatre in Vereeniging and, a jam packed concert at Jozi’s popular new rock venue, The Good Luck Bar.

Happiness is a Four-Letter Word offers a glimpse behind Jo'burg surbabia's white picket fences told through the story of three career-oriented and strong-willed women in search of true love. Starring Khanyi Mbau, Renate Stuurman and Mmabatho Montsho. Plot Summary: Perfectionist Nandi seems to have the New South African Dream life within her grasp, black female partner in a major firm, marriage, the perfect house - but it all goes up in flames a few months before the wedding. With her friends Zaza and Princess, Nandi will have to find out what truly makes her happy and then fight to get it.

What could follow The Epicene Butcher and We Didn't Come to Hell for the Croissants? In bocca al lupo, Jemma Kahn's third kamishibai show: a graphic and candid and whimsical journey across three continents, using four story boxes, one giant cicada, a naked Catholic (or two) and one golden surprise.

Using simple but beautifully drawn images displayed on cardboard story panels, Jemma Kahn has spent the last four years captivating audiences from Alexander Bar to Edinburgh to Amsterdam with her unique take on the 12th century Japanese art form 'kamishibai'. The effect is like watching a sort of live Manga cartoon, her sheer verve in combination with all the elements at play create an utterly original and sometimes bizarre theatre experience, a joyous tribute to visual and verbal storytelling.

Premiered at the National Arts Festival 2016 | Produced by POPArt Productions and Jemma Kahn, in association with the National Arts Festival and Arts and Culture Trust and Nedbank Arts Affinity.

In bocca al lupo like Kahn's two shows before it, brings together a truly wonderful creative team. And like the two shows before it, In bocca al lupo is not for the faint hearted or the easily offended.

Direction by Jane Taylor: writer, Ubu and the Truth Commission (1997), writer Wild Dogs (winner of the Olive Schreiner Prize 2006), director After Cardenio (2011)

Co-written with Tertius Kapp: theatre, Rooiland (Fleur Du Cap, Smeltkroes & Fiesta Awards 2013), Oorsee (Smeltkroes, 2014). Kapp won the Herzog Prize for theatrical work in 2015. His screen adaptation Dis ek, Anna won the SAFTA for best script in 2015 as well as the Silwerskerm for Best Picture.

In bocca al lupo at Alexander Bar:
30 Jan - 4 Feb & 6 Feb - 11 Feb @ 7pm

Tickets R130 at the door (R110 if you book online)

Exhibition opening: Tuesday 31 January 2017, 18h00 for 18h30

Address: Wits Art Museum, corner of Bertha (ext. of Jan Smuts Ave) and Jorissen Streets, Braamfontein, Johannesburg

RSVP: http://za05.rocketseed.com/content/wits-art-museum

Wits Art Museum is excited to invite you to Lifescapes, an exhibition that is the culmination of an innovative post-graduate course entitled ‘Writing Art’s Histories’, run by the Wits History of Art department. The course requires each student to write the ‘biography’ of a single object from WAM’s collection. The exhibition presents six objects researched by students in 2015 in dialogue with other objects and pictures, evoking aspects of their wider lives that students uncovered. The biographies are published in detail in an accompanying book of the same name. Lifescapes is the third in a series of linked books and exhibitions based on postgraduate object biography research and we are delighted to host it at WAM for the first time.

This kind of research points to the rewards gained from close looking, intensive enquiry, and deep thinking about the objects and the multiple people who, in varying ways, have shaped the objects’ lives. In 2015, students explored the compelling life-stories of a bowl-bearing figure carved from wood, a pastel landscape drawing, a clay pot, a pair of wooden colon figures, a suspended sculpture made of bone, and a black-and-white photograph. Through the exhibition and comprehensive accompanying publication, visitors will be able to access the multi-layered lives that each object has lived. Beyond mapping contexts for these objects, the stories in the book speak of the rich intersections and overlapping lives that can be revealed from within each object. Visitors are thus invited to take a glimpse into a series of object worlds, or ‘lifescapes’.

This is a project about knowledge-making — where students produce knowledge rather than consume it, and where individual interests drive the research. The research is rooted in processes of looking, touching, feeling, talking, reading, recording, imaging, telling and writing. As such the resulting biographies embody research as a multidimensional experience characterised by intersections, journeys and conversations and give insight to the possibilities of this kind of open yet demanding approach. The project enables and pushes students to develop their research into publishable form — going through all the attendant processes of editing, peer review, image permissions and so on — while also providing a space for students to explore curatorial processes and display practices as they consider ways in which to present ‘their’ objects and aspects of the wider worlds they form part of, for exhibition.

Exhibition will run until 9 July 2017, Wednesday to Sunday, 10h00 - 16h00

FREE live acoustic music every Tuesday evening. A stage is setup next to a candlelit bar/lounge area to keep you close to the entertainment and your drinks all night! Displaying some of the best local acoustic talent!

Allison was born on 14th June 1961 and grew up with her grandmother who was a student of Metaphysics. This early influence of “you create your own reality” and “you are the Master of your destiny” had a huge impact on her life. Growing up she always took responsibility for what was happening to her, understanding that “your thoughts create your circumstances”. She had always been intrigued by reincarnation, life after death and near death experiences, and had read up extensively on these subjects. In December 1987 at the age of 26, her beliefs were put to the test when she was widowed. Although she believed in life after death, with the shock of the loss, she now wanted proof.

Her journey from that point on, influenced by the proof that she received from her late husband and grandmother, as shared in this book, has been about sharing her stories and experiences, and learning skills of energy healing, to help others deal with loss. In her own private practice since January 2002, she does counselling, transformation coaching, teaching and energy healing. Having helped many people from all around the world deal with loss, Allison always felt that the information she shared everyone should know about to help them deal with loss, whether through divorce or death. She has written this book so that those who have suffered a loss can heal and move forward in their lives, as their loved ones would wish for them.

Book info

Spiritual Chat® on: Death and the Loss of a Loved One is about the extraordinary journey that Allison embarked on, from loss to healing, after the death of her husband in December 1987. Asking for signs and receiving confirmation throughout her life that her husband is indeed still aware of what is going on with her and with her son. After challenging everything (she calls herself the “the world’s biggest sceptic”), then getting signs, and then some, which she could not possibly explain away, she is convinced that there is definitely more to life and death than how things appear to be on the surface. Allison shares her personal experiences and those of others she had the privilege of meeting along the way, as well as those of clients she has helped throughout the years. She shares the understanding and insights she has gained on death and loss, so that others may move on with their lives after their experience of loss, knowing that ALL IS TRULY WELL with their loved ones and that all was, and is, exactly as it is supposed to be.

Sensational South African a-capella group THE SOIL will kickstart the new year and a new Kaya FM Bassline music series when they perform at The Lyric at Gold Reef City on Saturday 4th February 2017.

Soweto's pride and joy, The Soil hardly need any introduction to South African music lovers and already enjoy a hugely successful career that has taken them all over the globe. They were recently in the headlines when their new album 'Echoes of Kofifi' shot past official Gold sales status (that's over 20000 albums sold) three weeks after its release.

Signed to Native Rhythms Productions, The Soil are set to deliver an epic home town celebration at The Lyric on Saturday 4th February.

Kaya FM's monthly Live @ The Bassline series begun in August 2015, and saw a glittering array of South African music stars grace the legendary Bassline stage. Bassline's closure meant that the series had to find a new home, and The Lyric at Gold Reef City was the natural choice. With a world-class theatre on board, Kaya FM were happy to extend the agreement with Bassline Live to produce a monthly series that will run throughout 2017.

Presented by Kaya FM and Bassline Live, the show will be proudly supported by Old Mutual as exclusive financial services partner. South African Breweries will also partner with Bassline Live for this show. Support act TBC.

Tickets available from Computicket for R180, or at The Lyric at Gold Reef City box office at R200.

The month of love!

And man oh man, do we love these bands !

Woza Albert! is still a relevant story today; a school set-work in the South African GDE school curriculum. The theatre piece is a great tool for audience development while assisting schools with their school curriculum.

The play portrays so much truth and clarifies a simple approach to the human condition, therefore makes it relevant to South Africa.

Kom skop die maand van Liefde af met ‘n net vir die girls Valentyns kuier saam met Susan Coetzer by Blou Hond Casa Toscana op Sa oggend 11 Feb!

Tema: Tonic vir die Siel – wees jou eie Valentyn!

Nie almal van ons is in ‘n huwelik of in ‘n vaste romantiese verhouding nie – en dis okay!

Om ‘n alleenloper te wees kan ‘n besondere opwindende seisoen wees. Gebruik jou solo status en tyd op hande om jouself beter te leer ken, jou gawes, talente en sterktes te ontwikkel en jouself dieper te bevriend en lief te kry. Leer hoe om jou eie Valentyn te wees - eers dan sal jy dit vir Mister Right kan wees!

Susan deel in ligte trant die positiewe kant van single wees asook al die seen en geskenke wat sy die afgelope paar jaar op hierdie soloreis na binne ontdek het. Kom kuier en lag saam en kom vier die Liefde – almal welkom of jy single of double is.

Kom maak jou innerlike mens vol met ‘n bietjie liefdes Tonic vir jou Siel!

Join us for our February event!

New-comers and experienced board gamers welcome. Join other gamers or stick to your own group.

Over 300 board games will be on display for you to play, ranging from the classic must-haves to the latest heavy releases. You are more than welcome to bring your own games.
