Catch Shades of Broadway in your living room on Sunday

Hits include numbers from some of the biggest Broadway musicals in the world, ranging from Cabaret to Jesus Christ Superstar, Joseph, Evita and many more

Shades of Broadway is a dramatic tribute to the Broadway greats and provides the audience with an insightful view of life on the musical theatre stage from the artist’s perspective.

This Cellar Concert will take place on July 5 at 5pm.

Hits include numbers from some of the biggest Broadway musicals in the world, ranging from Cabaret to Jesus Christ Superstar, Joseph, Evita and many more. It is linked to personal stories and anecdotes from the experiences of the stage artists and the emotions they experience during such a production.

Gregg Pettigrew has been performing since a very early age and has been on the professional stage and screen for over 30 years. Although armed with the technical performance skill gained through his overseas training, it is his experience and versatility that make him the talent that he is.

Gregg has performed lead roles in some of the largest musicals around the world. Dramatic roles and productions remain his first love and these have seen him lift numerous performance awards in Australia and New Zealand, but this said, he remains true to his roots and treats the industry with the respect it deserves. Gregg firmly believes that performance is there to enrich others’ lives and to pass social commentary in a unique way.

Frans Swart, managing director of Lefra Productions, is excited to include the production as one of the Lefra Cellar Concerts.

“Us theatre-makers had to start thinking outside the box quickly and we were very surprised by the response we received at our Cellar Concerts. It is presented online every Sunday at 5pm for the whole family and it is so great for me that families come together and make something great of the concert,” said Swart.

Tickets are only R70 per household and you can enjoy the full production in your own living room. You can also book for a season ticket to see all the shows at a discounted price. Bookings can be made at www.itickets.co.za. Because tickets for the whole family are so cheap, there is also a donation option if you book to help artists in South Africa.
