‘Finding the light − An evening with musical theatre stars’

Rachel, together with The Kolisi Foundation and The FTL Foundation, is gearing up for a musical theatre event titled ‘Finding the Light − An Evening with musical theatre stars.’

The event promises an evening with musical theatre superstars and the Cape Town Philharmonic Orchestra.

Hosted by stand-up comedian Marc Lottering, the show will be held at the Artscape Opera House in April this year.

Rachel said all the proceeds will go to the Kolisi Foundation. She added: “Not only will the event be a night of stunning entertainment, but it will also greatly contribute to the work of the Kolisi Foundation.

“By purchasing a ticket and attending, you will be contributing to the vision to change the stories of inequality in South Africa, to see thriving communities… Let’s come together to make a difference and celebrate the power of music and community.”

The Kolisi Foundation have also posted about the show, urging people to buy tickets and attend.
