A tale of truth and fantasy
The show not only features original music, but also Nataniël’s surprise versions of a few of the world`s best known songs from the late sixties and the eighties.
Multi-talented stalwart of the South African entertainment industry for over two decades, Nataniël is more than just a producer, director, designer, playwright, public speaker and performer – he is a true icon of stage and screen.
Nataniël brings his latest stage creation, Mannequin, to the Theatre of Marcellus, at Emperors Palace, from August 18 to September 25.
Mannequin, first titled The Angry Tailor, then Garment, then The Disappearance, then The Captives, then the Artisans, then The Night People and then The Invisible World has been structured around stories in both English and Afrikaans.
An author toys with the idea of writing a book about the life of a reclusive tailor. Mannequin is the story told by this tailor.
It is a tale of surprise, fear, cruelty, humour, truth and fantasy.
This is a show about visual beauty and tailoring and features an astounding collection of new costumes by the multi-award-winning designer, Floris Louw.
The show not only features original music, but also Nataniël’s surprise versions of a few of the world`s best known songs from the late sixties and the eighties.
The show starts at 8pm.
