Echo of the Noise:
– Thursday 5 October 19:00 {GauFestival}

”I tell the story behind the stories. Turning 70 has given me the thumbs-up to share the secrets and let the cat out of the bag.” Pieter-Dirk Uys
“Brilliant. A soul-bearing show that has universal resonance.” – Cape Argus
“A formidable raconteur. What a profound journey it turns out to be.” – Cape Times
“’n Meesterlike storieverteller, sonder arrogansie of selfbeheptheid.”- Litnet
An evening with Evita:

– Friday 13 October 19:00
“Inspirational. Transformational. Funny. Glamorous. Topical. Typically South African. Optimistic. Hopeful.”
These are some of the words used to describe Evita Bezuidenhout’s State of the Nation address to corporates, conferences, think-tanks, indabas, award ceremonies and report-backs. The most famous white woman in South Africa is focusing on the need to move from the fearful negative that has infected our society to optimistic hope and excitement for a successful future for all.

– Sunday 15 October 15:00
Pieter-Dirk Uys on stage with his satirical cluster of icons and aikonas: from DF Malan, through Strydom, Verwoerd, Vorster, Botha and de Klerk to Mandela, Mbeki and Zuma. A hint of Mrs Peterson’s Cape flats, a wink at an old Pik, a laugh with Nowell Fine and a hug from the wonderful Tutu.
Do not miss this wonderful opportunity.
