FRANK Graham, one of South Africa’s most versatile character actors and comedians will use his hugely popular brand of humour to revoke memories of the Springbok Radio days at Tina’s Hotel, Kloof from Saturday, 3 June.
Do you remember a time when the only home entertainment we had was our precious radio?
Do you remember our universally popular Springbok Radio with its plethora of music shows and quiz shows?
And, particularly, do you recall the vast numbers of plays, serials, and series?
Do you remember, above all, the comedies that could help to lift your spirits at the end of a hard day?
Those were the days of Inspector Carr, Henry Simon of the Missing Persons Bureau, of Doctor Paul and Mary Livingston, MD.
They were the days of No 1 and No 2, Sir Gregory Pitkin, Mildred Murfin and Humbert and Lolita Snetherswaite; the days of Able Seaman Johnson, Percy Snodgrass and Kenneth Wibley.
From 1968 on, the vast majority of comedies was recorded right here in Durban, many of them in front of live audiences.
On Saturday, 3 June the show starts at 8pm and 2pm and 6.30pm on Sunday, 4 June.
Tables seat six people. Tickets are sold at R150 (R130 pensioners and FHSSC members).
