Sean Bovim's SwingTime

Be sure not to miss SwingTime at the Baxter Theatre this October

SwingTime - the perfect marriage between Broadway and Ballet – provides a high impact production and a visual feast that will entertain audiences of all ages.

Having recently returned from their very successful inaugural national tour of Sean Bovim's Tango Nights, ballet fans will be thrilled to hear that Bovim Ballet's next project will be the ever-popular SwingTime, originally created by Bovim in 2003.

SwingTime takes the audience on a nostalgic journey of the Big Band Era. The story centres around Bojangles, the owner of the Swing Club where it all happened. Bojangles' journey takes the audience back in time where romance was the order of the day, and dancing was a way of life for the young and young-at-heart.

The audience will accompany Bojangles on his trip down memory lane, where he remembers his past loves and the shenanigans during his time at The Swing Club. The role of Bojangles will be performed by Grant Swift.

Over the past 15 years Bovim’s work has been seen all over South Africa and as far afield as the USA, Russia, Denmark, Spain, the Edinburgh Festival and Ireland, where Queen at the Ballet played to more than 30,000 people with standing ovations at every performance at the Point Theatre in Dublin.
