Win tickets to Shall We Dance
Shall We Dance will be at the Playhouse Opera from 6 to 15 September.
RETURNING to the Playhouse Opera from 6 to 15 September, the annual dance showcase Shall We Dance is back with more steps than the mythical stairway to heaven.
Celebrating its 27th year this year, the annual showcase extravaganza of Durban’s diverse dance scene will be on stage for ten performances only. Dance styles featured this year include the daring, jaw-dropping adage, traditional and contemporary ballet, breath-taking ballroom, sensational belly, beautiful bollywood, toe-tapping Irish, stylish jazz and of course, sensational Latin American.
A number of Dance studios from around Durban with a total of 100 dancers have been hard at work behind the scenes, not only choreographing their performance but also creating, often from scratch, the phenomenal array of colourful costumes which the Durban audiences get to witnesses. These hand-crafted, one of a kind designs can take up an unbelievable number of hours, some with literally hundreds of sequins added onto the garments.

Included in the line-up this year are Durban’s Lezariah Blignaut and Nkululeko Khumalo who have a string of titles to their name. After dazzling audiences last year in their South African debut, the main featured couple, Danish, Nikolaj Lund and Polish Marta Kocik, have been invited back for more ‘wow’ ballroom and Latin numbers. Renowned South African dancer, Ryan Hammond will also take to the stage with his wife, Angelique, and graceful strong man, Gerhard van Rooyen takes to the stage this year with Amor Kruger. Having just returned from Cyprus, the duo will be sharing the phenomenal Cirque du Soleil, acrobatic style of adage.
