Evita se Perron November 2009 (This event has passed)

Description

Laugh it up this November at Evita se Perron. Slap your thighs with tears streaming down your cheeks at Elections and Erections or Icons and Aikonas or Tannie Evita Praat Kaktus. All shows are tried and trusted favourites from South Africa's master political satirist, Evita Bezuidenhout. No one is spared her acerbic wit, not even the archbishop himself!

"Icons & Aikonas"... From Verwoerd to Mandela, from the A to the Z of our politics - apartheid to Zuma! Remembering the past to celebrate the future with PW Botha, Pik Botha, Grace Mugabe, Nowell Fine, Bill Clinton, Adriaan Vlok, Nelson Mandela and Tannie Evita.

"Tannie Evita Praat Kaktus"... A revisionist look at the history of white South Africa, from the arrival in 1652 of the Cactus of Seperate Development on the Drommedaris, through the Great Trek, Blood River, the 1948 Election and arrival of the National Party and official apartheid, through the birth of democracy and the reality of today. Tannie Evita, in English, takes you on a journey, a hilarious roller- coaster ride to freedom of expression.

"Elections and Erections"... A personal journey through the minefield of fear and fun inspired by South Africa's most crucial general election of 22 April 2009. Pieter-Dirk Uys celebrates the two issues that were illegal for most of his life in South Africa: democracy and sex. He uses humour, his weapon of mass distraction, and declares it is time to laugh! Depending on Who's Who in the Political Zoo, Uys will present a host of familiar and upcoming politicians and opinion-shakers, from the Clintons and Obamas in the USA, a Zuma here and a Zille there, old Nats, reinvented Communists, designer Democrats, Fat Cats and bloody Fools. Come and share the fun and optimism!
