Cape Ballet Africa Returns To The Drama Factory With Intermezzo
Cape Ballet Africa presents a new programme of short works at the delightful Drama Factory where the Company enjoyed presenting work in 2024.
The production is a gentle and cathartic artistic offering from this recently established company fresh from their exceptional debut at the Artscape Opera House in March.
Celebrating Tchaikovsky features the composer’s most loved works for ballet including The Sleeping Beauty, Swan Lake and The Nutcracker. A selection of iconic tunes form the basis for this suite profiling the beautiful artists of Cape Ballet Africa.
Desiderata, the much – loved prose poem by writer Max Ehrmann forms the inspiration for the collection of choreographic works by South African choreographers with Marcel Meyer, celebrated South African actor, narrating the evocative and stirring text.
What the media had to say about Breathwords:
‘A transformative evening of dance that elevates the soul‘ Keith Bain, Daily Maverick
‘magic can be made when you have the winning recipe that combines talent, passion and intuitive lighting. I [was] so mesmerised that it was [a case of] being invited to exhale and simply enjoy the chance to be entertained by pure talent and skill‘ Barbara Loots, Theatre Scene Cape Town
