Oos wes, tuis bes

Met Jacobi de Villiers, Eben Genis, Olga Leonard

Wat gebeur as jy jou drome in Europa gaan soek en jouself dan weer in Suid-Afrika bevind? In die selfspotryke Oos wes, tuis bes neem Jacobi de Villiers en die pianis Olga Leonard die gehoor pad-, liedjie- en laglangs na plekke soos Parys en Berlyn en onderwerpe soos ambisie, ompaaie en tuiskoms. Dié musiekproduksie verweef kabaret en Afrikaanse gunstelinge tot ’n warm, herkenbare verhaal oor “wat ek gedink het sou wees” en “wat is”. Dis snaaks, raak, en uiteindelik bevrydend, want soms is die plek waar jy eindig presies waar jy hoort.

Musiekregisseur Olga Leonard

This musical production weaves cabaret and Afrikaans favorites into a warm, relatable story about “what I thought would be” and “what is”. It’s funny, touching, and ultimately liberating, because sometimes the place you end up is exactly where you belong.
