Synopsis:

Want to go clubbing at a place that you will recognise the complete playlist and be able to sing along to the lyrics of every song?

Try out Boogie nightclub! Preferably on a Friday or Saturday as you will be dancing with an over 25 crowd. If you want to feel like a student again, then pop in on a Thursday night where you will find plenty of students of the ‘long legged and short mini-skirt’ species … but no need to be intimidated, as the music is retro, definitely 80’s and keeps your toes tapping and your vocals exercised! Recommended night out especially for those of us who grew up in the 80's!

The Nut Cracker on Ice - January 2012

What: The Nutcracker on Ice

When: 29 January 2012 at 6pm

Where: The Artscape Theatre

Cost: R150

Patrons Present: Janine, Lucy, Fiona, Amie, Carol, Lyn, Charnel, Megan, Jodine, Gail and Vanessa S.

Organised by: Carol

The Nutcracker on Ice was an utterly enchanting and dazzling production with stunning costumes and design sets and performed by the amazing Imperial Ice Stars to Tchaikovsky’s music compositions on a theatre stage which was transformed into a temporary ice rink.

The story unfolds with the director focusing on the festive spirit of Christmas Eve, the nutcracker doll transforming into a handsome prince, the battle between the mice and soldiers and finally the journey to the Land of Sweets. Then after all their adventures, one is left wondering if it really happened or was it just a dream.

The skaters had the audience sitting at the edge of their seats as they pushed boundaries to fascinate and entertain them. The skating was absolutely captivating; from the young Maria and the Nutcracker Prince, the Sugar Plum Fairy, the Spanish dancing to flamenco music, the tea dance from China, the Cossack dancers performing energetic acrobatic feats as well as a stunning aerial performance by the only South African in the show with her fiancé.

All in all a truly memorable night at the (ice) ballet.
