Benefit night supports women’s empowerment
Tickets are on sale for the Robin Hood Foundation's fundraising night at the Elizabeth Sneddon Theatre.
THE Robin Hood Foundation is hosting a fundraising event at the Elizabeth Sneddon Theatre on Friday, 3 July to raise funds for their Future Women of Africa Conference, the foundation’s focus project for 2015.
Tickets are R120 each and include a seat to watch Soldiers in the City at the Sneddon, and light snacks. A cash bar is available and the doors open at 6pm.
The PANSA Young Performers production is about two best friends, both excellent poets, who compete in an underground slam poetry challenge where they realise that words are sharper, and more dangerous, than swords, and that forgiveness and loyalty is more valuable than glory.
Soldiers in the City is a vibrant, contemporary, relevant story talking to pertinent youth-focused issues. The production examines the overt culture of the new generation which includes rhyming, beat-box, urban dance, music and public artwork like graffiti – much like the very popular Step Up movie series. An innovative, new home-grown work created by Themi Venturas, Iain “Ewok” Robinson and Lucky Cele.
To book email Kim Griffith Jones on robinhoodfund@telkomsa.net as soon as possible as tickets are selling fast.
