Hey Now! Hey Now Now!

Monday is a public holiday so why not enjoy a tribute to some of the greatest alternative 80s music of all time on Sunday night at 8pm.

Hey Now! Hey Hey Now! will be on the Barnyard Theatre for a show which will rock you to the core and has been described as containing “elements of real Rock ‘n Roll” and is therefore not for sensitive viewers.

Nataniël – After Animals

Singer, songwriter, author and entertainer Nataniël brings his latest stage creation, After Animals, to the Theatre Of Marcellus from August 20.

Inspired by his travels and love for both classic and contemporary art, the show takes place in the not-so-distant future and begins on the night when, during a secret ceremony, the last animal on earth gets slaughtered and eaten.

The already fragile world immediately starts changing, from the forests to the cities, from the homes of families to the hearts of the most powerful individuals.

This forms the backdrop for Nataniël’s latest stories (in both English and in Afrikaans) and songs.

Dark, dramatic, fantastical, funny and surprising, After Animals is billed as “a theatrical event not to be missed!”

The all-male cast includes Nicolaas Swart (vocals) , newcomer Francois Joubert (vocals), Martin van Heerden (dancer), Bradley Dreyer (acrobat), Charl du Plessis (keyboards), Juan Oosthuizen (guitar), Werner Spies (bass) and Hugo Radyn (drums).

A highly original and ambitious wardrobe, inspired by sculpture and origami, is being created by multi-award winner, Floris Louw.

The staging is designed by Nataniël with sets and props created by Nadine Minnaar and Stephan Kruger.

Lighting is by Nataniël and Kevin Stannet.

The show starts at 8.30pm and the show runs from on Wednesday to Saturday until September 27.
