STELLENBOSCH: Weeklikse dorpskalender | Weekly town calendar


VRYDAG 7 AUGUSTUS

Stellenbosch: Die Kaapstad Stadsballet bring op Vrydag 7 en Saterdag 8 Augustus Sean Bovim se bekroonde Swingtime na die ADAM SMALL-TEATER. Die vertoning, ‘n viering van die goue tyd van die Big Band-era, vervoer die gehoor na die legendariese Swing Club, waar musiek, dans en romanse elke hoekie gevul het. Sentraal in die storie is die onvergeetlike mnr. Bojangles, die klub se charismatiese eienaar, wie se herinneringe die gehoor terugvoer na ‘n tyd toe koperblaasorkeste die pas aangegee, dansvloere met elegansie geglinster en elke aand opwin- ding, glimlagte en die moontlikheid van liefde belowe het. Opvoerings vind om 19:00 Vrydag en 14:30 en 18:00 Saterdag plaas. Kaartjies, van R175 tot R350, is deur Webtickets of Pick n Pay-winkels beskikbaar.


SATERDAG 8 AUGUSTUS

Stellenbosch: Die vyfde jaarlikse Nia Kansa Vrouedag Geldinsamelingsgeleentheid word om 10:00 vir 10:30 by die RUPERT-MUSEUM aangebied.

Daar sal inspirerende gassprekers en gesprekke wees, somatiese ervarings met Mia Steyn, somatiese opvoeder en internasionale Nia-afrigter, betekenisvolle stories word gedeel, en nog meer.
