Ever since Eve grabbed that fig leaf, humankind has been obsessed with what we wear, why we wear, and how we wear the clothes that make us, break us and fake us.
Through an eclectic mix of reimagined songs including all-time favourites such as I’m Still Standing, Time in a Bottle, True Colours, Black Velvet and You’re never fully dressed without a Smile together with a variety of costume changes, The Dress Code takes the audience on a journey that explores the diverse and often humorous issues related to fashion and pokes fun at the complexities of our relationship with clothing. Whether you are addicted to online shopping, have opinions on fast fashion, or worry about not wearing the right dress code to a function, this show has something for anyone who wears clothes.
Join seasoned musical theatre and television stars Ntambo Rapatla (Chicago The Musical, We Will Rock You, King Kong The Musical) who is also a philanthropist, writer and director of children’s plays; Sharon Spiegel Wagner (Rocky Horror, Grease, Hairspray) easily recognisable for her role in the Showmax original series, Tali’s Joburg Diary and vocalist, producer and performer Lorri Strauss (Rent, Rocky Horror, Backstage) as they laugh, sing and strut their way through ‘The Dress Code’.
Directed by fashion forward Alan Swerdlow (award winning director, actor and playwright) and with musical direction by the stylish, Clifford Cooper (Oliver, Rocky Horror, Little Shop Of Horrors), this production is a must see for fashionistas or anyone who enjoys an evening of comedy and music.
