UPCOMING SHOWS
NOW SHOWING
The most famous white woman in South Africa is now 89, always ten years older than her imposter. She has been in the public domain since 1981 when she, as South African Ambassador to Bapetikosweti, caught the public’s ear and eye. She has experienced the dramas of the National Party’s chalk becoming the ANC’s cheese. Still in her Luthuli House kitchen Tannie Evita shares her opinions of 30 years of ANC rule. She doesn’t need a crystal ball to see what is happening to South Africa.
The future of our country is certain; it’s just the past that’s unpredictable. Evita will prove that once again, as she brings needed humour into our present democratic wilderness.
Tannie Evita’s revisionist history of white South Africa – from the arrival in 1662 of the Kaktus of Separate Development, through the Great Trek, Blood River, the 1948 National Party victory; through apartheid into the Rainbow Nation and the reality of today’s GNU! Mrs Bezuidenhout (in English) takes you on your journey, a hilarious roller-coaster ride to freedom of expression.
Pieter-Dirk Uys presents a celebration of free speech, laughing at sacred cows. He presents ten numbered Boxes. The audience will choose a Box and out of that Box will appear a familiar character, a typical situation or a famous politically-incorrect democratically-elected politician. Like a ‘Pic-a-Box’/ Kies-’n-Doos’! Come and take your pick: something old, something new, something shocking: all for you!
Here you will find a collection of political artefacts and memorabilia. Our museum is dedicated to Tannie Evita Bezuidenhout who had such an influence on South African politics through her characteristic angle of satire.
