THREE of Durban’s most loved and versatile performers – Lisa Bobbert, Liesl Coppin and Marion Loudon – make up the formidable ‘femme de force’ known as The Glitter Girls.
The talented trio not only lights up the stage, but also has the audience eating out of the palms of their manicured hands. All three are natural comics who keep the audience in stitches with their irrepressible performances.
The trend-busting Glitter Girls go back to 1989 of neon, big hair… and back to school in a show this December.
The show hinges around the 25th anniversary reunion of Skolliesville High School’s Class of 1989.
The comedy entertainment includes songs from the 80s, right up to today, with hits from Bananarama, Eurythmics, Rihanna, Madonna and Abba.
Witness the Glitter Girls reliving their greatest triumphs, trials and heartbreaks in this comic caper, which won the 2014 Mercury Durban Theatre Award for Best Musical Review, and also a Best Actress in a Musical Review Award for Liesl Coppin.
A highlight of the show is when the girls gender-bend into their alter-egos – Kenny de la Mer, Ruben Lipshitz and John Grey. ‘The Glitter Girls’ is a MacBob Productions in association with The Playhouse Company and runs in the Playhouse Loft Theatre between 9 and 20 December.
Booking is through Computicket.
