Vastly popular jazz band, Platform Jazz, joins a line-up of poets for The Playhouse Company’s monthly SUNDOWNERS concert on Friday 4 March from 17h00. Admission is free.

Everyone at some time in their lives has either been to or had a party. We all celebrate milestones in our lives such as birthdays, engagements, weddings, achievements, certain holidays, and so forth, and celebrating usually means being with people, having fun, eating and drinking, dressing up, singing and dancing. Well, it’s time to celebrate with Platform Jazz and an impressive line-up of poets at The Playhouse Company in March! 

Platform Jazz is set to bring you jazz party favourites from the gangster and Great Gatsby parties, evergreen tunes from the Swing era, conga line Latin favourites, and songs that just celebrate life. Following their recent success in January â€"“Their best and most jovial show to date,” according to The Mercury -- Platform Jazz will be performing great favourites such as ‘Mac the Knife’,  ‘Feeling Good’,  ‘Rum and Coca Cola’, ‘Tequila!’, ‘Here’s to Life’ , ‘Let’s Fall in Love’, ’C’est si bon’ , ‘What a wonderful world’  and ‘Quando quando’, to name just a few. Join Jeff Judge on the sax, Dunc the Hunc on the trombone, Kirsten the Kitten on the clarinet, Melvin Peters on the keys, Andreas on the bass, Bashful Bruce on the drums, Songbird Shelley McLean at the mic and Cathy Hotlips Peacock on the trumpet.

Also on the programme for the evening is the enormously popular poets’ line-up. Poets Xoliswa Nomashenge Dlamini, Mutle Andries Mothibe, Anushka Ramchuran and Jabulani Itumeleng Mkhize will perform their own original works for always-enthusiastic SUNDOWNERS audiences.

So, come and celebrate at The Playhouse Company on Friday 4 March from 17h00, and get your party on. Admission to the SUNDOWNERS concert, which begins at 17h00, is free. The Playhouse Coffee Shop and the Playhouse bar will both be open for a selection of drinks and light meals. Discounted parking is available at the Royal Parkade and the Albany Parkade. Free Wi-Fi is available in the Playhouse foyer.
