The Trolley Dollies present new show for their autumn & winter season at Gate69!
After a sell-out season of their hilarious hit show The Three Little Pigs, Cape Town’s inimitable Trolley Dollies are back from 22 March to 28 September 2019 with NON-Specific, theatre from the inside out.
Since opening Gate69 in 2016, now widely rated as Cape Town’s number one dinner-theatre venue in the Mother City, the leggy trio have given audiences a behind-the-scenes tour of the airline industry (Cathy and the Trolley Dollies), offered the low down on the ins-and-outs of the world of cosmetic surgery (Snip/Tucked) and are now giving fans a backstage pass to the show-behind- the-show, and the word is out that no-one will ever be the same again!
If you’ve ever wondered what goes on in the dark spaces beyond the spotlight, this is your one chance to find out. The girls are dishing the dirt on themselves and let’s face it, everyone loves an inside scoop. All is not what it seems when it comes to the country’s First Ladies of Flying, the seven-foot-pin-up bombshells who are actually six-foot tall ex-rugby players, in heels. These twisted sisters have sworn to tell the whole truth and nothing but the truth, so help them Judy Garland.
NON-Specific stars Brendan van Rhyn as Cathy, Rudi Jansen as Molly and writer-director Christopher Dudgeon as Holly. Additional lyrics are by Brendan van Rhyn, sound and lighting is by Chad Goldsworthy, set design is by Eddie du Plooy, wigs are by Tessa Denton and costumes by Lloyd Kandlin and Kyle Jardine.
Your favourite Trolley Dollies are taking 2019 through the back door, and it’s high time you followed suit!
Nothing is as warm as Gate69 in winter, so grab your tickets before these old girls decide to rebuild the fourth wall and leave you out in the cold. NON-Specific opens at Gate69 on 22 March with performances from Wednesday to Saturdays at 8:15pm with recommended arrival time at 6:30pm for an incomparable embrace from Cathy Specific on the red carpet.
Tickets cost is R520 to R599 pp and includes the show ticket and a tasty gourmet tapas offering. Booking is through www.gate69.co.za or 021 0351627. PG16
