NEXT!!! Auditions are not for the faint of heart, as part of the Klippies Fringe program.
“My sister, Veronica, and I had this double act…”. The young Relebogithata is entranced, it is the third time she has seen this show. Her bright brown eyes sparkle as she soaks up every word, every move, every nuance. As the audience leaves the theatre, Relebogithata just sits there with a little knowing smile. She softly whispers “I want to be a star!”.
Ten years later Relebogilethata, seesaws between waitressing and auditions!
Is this the right song to impress? STEP, KICK, KICK, TOUCH, TURN my feet hurt, I am a sweaty mess…6-7-8…I need this break…NEXT!!!
In this roller coaster ride of heartache and hope, Relebogilethata bounces from one audition to the next, performing popular musical numbers to powerful isiXhosa songs by Miriam Makeba. ANYTHING to avoid the dreaded Next!!!
NEXT!! is a Wela Kapela production. The cabaret is written and directed by Amanda Bothma, with Jacques Du Plessis as musical director and starring Dikelo Mamiala.
