Dance and dinner theatre at Mavericks
High-end, choreographed burlesque cabaret
Culture, nature and pleasure come together at the Taalmonument in Paarl this summer, with a series of picnics from January until March 2016.
The symbol of the official recognition of the Afrikaans language, and as a language separate from Dutch, as well as serving as a metaphorical bridge between Africa and Europe – a connection between cultures – this monument is culturally and historically significant.
And what a nice spot for a festive gathering of any kind. That’s exactly the vibe at the Taalmonument Picnic Series held to bring people together, while also raising money for a children’s reading project ‘Laat ons Lees!’ (Let us Read). Between January and March 2016 a variety of concerts will be taking place at this spectacular venue under the stars. Be sure not to miss your favourite performer.
