The Luitingh Alexander Musical Theatre Academy – or LAMTA, as it is fondly known – is delighted to announce its first stage production at Theatre on the Bay. Silver Screen is inspired by music from some of cinema’s most timeless classics and modern blockbusters and serves as a showcase of South Africa’s freshest young talent.
Choreographed by established leaders in the South African dance industry – including Adele Blank, Brigitte Reeve, Hope Maimane, Michelle Reid, Duane Alexander, Ilona Frege, Ashley Searle, Robin van Wyk and Sven-Eric Müller – this production promises to be a celebration of powerful and exciting dance to some of your favourite movie music hits.
The Luitingh Alexander Musical Theatre Academy was recently established on the top floor of Theatre on the Bay in Camps Bay with the primary aim of training triple threat students to become competitive working artists in today’s theatre industry. LAMTA is a partnership between musical theatre performers Anton Luitingh and Duane Alexander and theatre impresario, Pieter Toerien.
Tickets for Silver Screen, which runs from 5 – 8 June, cost R100 and are available through Computicket.
