BEEFCAKES (Joburg, Pretoria and Cape Town)
The concept is simple – eat a burger while being served by a shirtless guy – and be entertained by a gaggle of drag queens.
Beefcakes offers fantastic entertainment outside of their dinner theatre shows Fridays and Saturdays.
On Wednesday, the Illovo branch comes alive with LouLou Blu in Gender Bender where she takes you on a sometimes mindboggling journey through the sexes. On Thursdays, Holly Diamond transforms into nine divas.
Tickets to the shows are R100. Gumede and Raezeen Wentworth and performed by Nhlanhla Mahlangu, Gqisha! entwines the stirring weight of personal history with the fraught narrative of intergenerational dispossession and the literal and non-literal reactions to that history.
Gqisha! refers to the Zulu war chant used in the preparation for battle or the gathering of energy for the task ahead, and the production considers this both literally and figuratively.
Tickets start at R100.
Commenting on the quality of the girls performing is like writing an appreciation post about boxed wine. Ask no questions and just enjoy some Whitney Houston lipsyncs and cheap booze.
