It’s finally here - the multi-award winning show “A Handful of Keys” conceived by well known Ian von Memerty (from “Strictly Come Dancing”).  A dazzling display of music and comedy that will leave you wanting more!

A Handful of Keys is a hilarious two-man piano show that began in 1994 and has to date been seen by more than 300 000 people in more than 850 performances on three continents.  Initially the show starred Ian von Memerty and Bryan Schimmel winning nine awards for best musical production and best performance.  Its second incarnation, starring again Ian von Memerty with Roelof Colyn, followed in 2001.  In 2005 the show tooks on it’s third shining shape starring Roelof Colyn and Jeremy Quickfall.  In 2008 the witty Roelof Colyn paired up with Jonathan Roxmouth in a magical partnership reigniting the show to a sensationally brilliant and entertaining phenomenon. The talented Jonathan is well known for his performances as “Amadeus”, “Buddy”, in “Grease” (as Vince Fontaine) and in “Beauty and the Beast” (as Gaston).

Reviews give an accurate reflection of this unique show: “…masterful, sheer brilliance and creativity.  Sensational from start to finish…” – Daily Dispatch, “…woorde nie genoeg nie – gaan kyk, gaan kyk, gaan kyk.  Dit was uitmuntend, gevolg deur staande applous…” – Die Burger, “The diversity is dazzling, with a firecracker script and two grand pianos played with unparalleled virtuosity…” – Barry Ronge. 

A Handful of Keys is a completely South African product of international standard.  Be prepared for a dazzling display of pianistic virtuosity and hilarious impersonations, constant surprises and wit, with music ranging from the Classical masters such as Bach and Beethoven to Ray Charles, Elton John, Freddy Mercury and Liberace.

This concert is sponsored by the Arts Trust.
