The inimitable Benny Bushwhacker comes to Durban’s Elizabeth Sneddon Theatre stage from Tuesday, 30 July, to Sunday, 11 August.
South Africa proudly welcomes home Bushwhacker, world renowned conservationist, environmental campaigner, and the only man to have thrice walked the length of Africa barefoot. The legend returns to share what it takes to survive the African bush and for the African bush to survive.
The genial South African born, Bushwhacker (aka Ben Voss), who recently made world headlines for banging heads with swashbuckling British survivalist, Bear Grylls, will tour South Africa’s theatres and festivals with a hilarious yet sobering look at the collision between man and environment.
For somebody who has spent more time away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life than a hibernating Arctic wood frog, Bushwhacker brings untainted humanity and delicious humour to his performance that will have you laughing out loud and wondering why, when it comes to the bush, the most uncommon human trait, is common sense.
While touring South Africa, Bushwhacker will raise awareness for the Lebombo Leopard – human conflict survey. And while leopards are not known to change their spots, through this initiative, Bushwhacker will try to help humans to do so.
Book your seats through Compu-ticket for this wonderful look at life on the wild side, because, like the rhinos of Africa, you never know if you will get the chance to see it again.
