Desert Rose brings their comedy show to Johannesburg
HAIM, Israel – Desert Rose Productions, an English-language theatre company in Israel, is bringing its acclaimed comedy, “Together, Against the Odds” to South Africa later this month for two shows only, the company said in a media release.
DESERT ROSE PRODUCTIONS
The production, starring married South African-born couple, Grant Crankshaw and Daniella Roman, is a hilarious autobiographical tale of the couple and their experiences both pre- and post-aliyah. They arrived in Israel some 19 years ago.
It features a collection of funny vignettes of this unlikely couple’s adventures, from meeting at Wits Drama School in the 80s and falling in love while reconciling their religious and cultural differences, to immigrating to Israel and the adjustments to a foreign culture.
The two eventually opened Desert Rose Productions, and along with their growing stable of actors, have produced and performed their original shows “Sentimental Journey”, “Broadway Babes” and “Together, Against the Odds”.
Their show will only have two performances in Johannesburg – Thursday November 24 at the Indaba Hotel and Saturday evening (November 26) at the Janx Hall, Beit Emanuel in Parktown – due to the couple’s limited time in South Africa.
The show starts at 20:00. Tickets are R180 (early bird) and R200 and can be bought online at Webtickets: http://bit.ly/2drkhPJ
