FESTIVE HOLIDAY PANTOMIME FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY!
SINBAD THE SAILOR WILL BE ‘DOCKING’ AT THE TEATRO THIS FESTIVE SEASON
We have teamed up with Kickstart Productions, the popular Durban based Theatre Company to present a fun-filled family pantomime for the festive season, Sinbad The Sailor at the Teatro, Montecasino from 19 November to 23 December 2022.
It is a riotous romp over the Seven Seas, in the company of the famous sailor, Sinbad, and his madcap crew and family! With gloriously colourful sets and costumes that evoke the exotic mystery and magic of the Arabian Nights, and exciting music and dance, inspired by Bollywood, this is a unique, unforgettable pantomime experience for the entire family.
Kickstart Theatre Company is famous for its holiday pantomimes and this year is no different. The 16-strong cast features some of the creams of South Africa’s talent. Sinbad features newcomer Micah Stojakovic in the title role, Schoeman Smit as Dame Donna Kebab, Murray Todd as Long John Slither and Samantha Peo as Morgiana the Magnificent. The delightful heroine of the piece is Princess Marina (Kiruna-Lind Devar), and the magical larger-than-life Genie of the Seven Seas is played by Yamikani Phiri with Lelo Ramasimong as the no-nonsense Ameena; Sandi Dlangalala as the deliciously vague Silly Billy Souvlaki; and Mthokozisi Zulu as the trusty pirate sidekick, Mustapha Kitkat. The ensemble is made up of Marang Khwene, Kutloano Rankoe, Hannah Rudnicki, Kyra Teague, Joshua Groenveld, Thokozani Jiyane, Lwazi Pinyana and Sabelo Radebe.
Written and directed by Steven Stead; designed by Greg King, with choreography by Evashnee Pillay, and lighting by Denis Hutchinson, Sinbad the Sailor is perfect year-end holiday entertainment for the entire family.
