Support Gee Jays as they raise funds for Charel’s Talent USA dream

Support the Gee Jays in their latest show Let There Be Love for a special Talent America fundraiser for singer Charel Haasbroek on Sunday, 19 June.

LOCAL based theatre, Rhumbelow and Durban legends, the Gee Jays will hold a Talent America fundraising evening on Sunday, 19 June to help raise funds for Glenwood singer Charel Haasbroek to make his American dream come true.

In a world of injustice, corruption and hatred, The Gee Jays John Didlick, Gary McKenzie and Grant Bell thought it was time for us all to lighten up a little, and so to this end have compiled a light hearted look at all things we call “Love”. 'Let There Be Love,' is a light-hearted musical comedy compilation of love songs from all eras and genres.

As The Gee Jays celebrate their 31st year together, they thought this would be a wonderfully nostalgic way to celebrate. Expect to see the usual mirth frivolity and eye twinkling. With the Gee Jays guarantee of “a perfect evening of romantic escapism, whilst exploring this thing called love.”

Expect to hear songs like Hello Young Lovers, Can’t Help Falling In Love, Love Potion No 9, Love Grows, Let Your Love Flow, To Love Somebody, That’s Amore, Love Is In The Air, Let Your Love Flow, Love Is All Around, Crazy Little Thing Called Love, and of course – Let There Be Love.

Haasbroek scooped five gold medals in the Talent Africa nationals in Johannesburg and was selected to represent South Africa at Talent

America which takes place in New York in July. While the talented singer is proud to be selected, he has concerns about funding the trip which will cost R85 000. The star has reached his first target of R10 000, but has a long way to go before he is on his way to the talent show.

“I'd like to thank Roland Stansell and The Gee Jays for giving me the opportunity to use the show “Let There Be Love” at the Rhumbelow

Theatre as a fundraiser to assist me in realizing my dream to compete at Talent America in New York City in July,” he said.

The Rhumbelow Theatre opens 90 minutes before show for a picnic dinner (bring a picnic basket, bar available but no alcohol allowed onto the premises). Tickets cost R140. Booking is essential. Contact Charel Haasbroek for more information and booking on 082 048 7901 or email: charelartist@gmail.com
