A star-studded awards cast With Nik Rabinowitz as the evening’s MC, almost anything can be expected - although we sincerely hope that he’ll be better behaved than Ricky Gervais was at the
Golden Globes! His eloquence will be matched by that of theatre doyennes, Dr John Kani and Dawn Lindberg.
Top-drawer entertainers who will keep the audience enthralled throughout the evening are the Soweto Gospel Choir, The Bala Brothers, World Champion exhibition dancers Craig and Natalie, and the powerful PJ Powers.
Gracing the presenters rostrum are theatre and television personalities, Robert Whitehead, Sello Maake ka Ncube, Fiona Ramsay, Nat Ramabulane, Princess Zinzi-Mhlongo, Kgomotso Matsunyane, Sindi Mabe, and Napo Masheane They’re joined by local celebs Khensani and Zam of Stoned Cherrie, and Loyiso Bala of The Bala Brothers.
The big shows of last year will be represented in the evening’s line-up, so stand by for a cross-cultural medley from the multi-nominated
Songs of Migration, Angela Killian delivering her powerhouse showstopper from the Toerien production of
Evita, and Kate Normington, Gina Shmukler and Ilse Klink doing their playful Donna and the Dynamos routine from
Mamma Mia.
Alan Committee and Terence Bridgett will also be providing interludes in their own unique and quirky fashion - you have been warned…
