28-30 July – The Pumpkin Theatre at La Montagne Hotel is bringing back the sell-out show, Abba Tribute: Thank you for the Music, a must-see production you don’t want to miss. The sparkly, upbeat side of Abba comes readily to mind, but to ignore their melancholy side is to underestimate them. As the band headed into the 80s, many of their songs became darker in tone and employed increasingly complex lyrics of surprising depth. Relive the moments with tickets priced from only R200 per person. Book now at www.pumpkintheatre.co.za or contact 061 871 1665. Show times are 7.30-10pm (Friday), 7.30-10pm (Saturday) and 2-4.30pm (Sunday).
