*** Elzabe Zietsman IS BACK!!
Wat om te doen as die wêreld brand!

Die wêreld is aan die brand, maar die engel / orakel / demi-godin wat die kliëntedienssentrum van die kosmos eiehandig beman, is afgeboek weens uitbranding. Die groot oor van die heelal is geheel en al oor dit. Wie gaan nou na die mensdom se gesanik luister, raad gee oor verhoudings en vure doodslaan waar hulle dreig om verwoesting te saai? In hierdie kabaret vertolk Elzabé Zietsman die rol van ‘n “Vra Dr. Adri” agony aunt vir alles en almal in die universum, met vurige vertolkings van bekende treffers en ‘n pragmatiese benadering tot oorlewing in tye wat voel soos die einde van dae.

PS. During performances at Die Pienk Kerk, seating is arranged to create a warm and welcoming atmosphere for all guests. As tables are limited, guests may be asked to share tables with others attending the show.

***BORN TO DIVA - STARRING TONYA KOENDERMAN
Internationally acclaimed cabaret artist Tonya Koenderman is in town with her renowned one-woman show, Born To Diva!
20 June Diepienkkerk
She promises a musical feast with serial thrillers and gorgeous, dazzling costumes. It takes some doing to emulate the likes of Tina Turner, Shirley Bassey, Liza Minnelli, Miriam Makeba, Edith Piaf, Nina Simone, and Celine Dion, amongst others, but Tonya does this with ease…plus her own personality and charm thrown into the mix.

In true diva style, Tonya adds her own saucy touch to evergreens: "Diamonds are forever", "My Baby Just Cares for me", "Pata Pata", "Special Star", "Simply the Best", "Nutbush City Limits", "Proud Mary", "All That Jazz, and "New York New York".

The show has had standing ovations and rave reviews across South Africa, including Johannesburg, Durban, Cape Town, Port Elizabeth and East London. The show has also been performed in Mauritius, Seychelles, and on the MSC Cruiseliners.

Critics have described the show as “Sizzling!”, “Captivating” and “Top class cabaret”.
