On Stage Next Week at Theatre On The Bay - Ceri Dupree Returns To S.A
10 September 2024
Ceri Dupree, the UK’s leading female impersonator, brings his spectacular one man, 21 woman show to Cape Town and Johannesburg this September.
Expect glamour, glitter and laughter galore as he impersonates before your very eyes some of the most famous and iconic women in the world, from Queen Camilla, Joan Collins, Marlene Dietrich, Lady Gaga, and a host of others in between… you name her, he’s done her!
Changing into more than 15 fabulous costumes without ever leaving the stage… how does he do that? Well, come and see for yourself.
Ceri Dupree has been delighting audiences worldwide for almost 30 years. His unique talents have led him through musical theatre, pantomime, summer seasons, television and cabaret. There isn't an audience (age or type!!!) that he hasn't played to.
He has performed at various major venues throughout England, Ireland, Scotland and his birthplace Wales including numerous appearances at top class hotels like The Savoy, The Dorchester, The Churchill, The Landmark, and Claridges.
His international work has included appearances in Greece, France, Holland, Spain, Germany, the Seychelles, and South Africa.
Ceri has appeared in many West End nightclubs, including The Café de Paris, The Stork Club, Le Beat Route, Ronnie Scott's, and Pizza on the Park.
He appeared twice nightly, six nights a week (and never missed a show!) for two years at the world famous Madame Jo Jo's in London's West End, followed by three years at Minsky's music hall in Cardiff. His extensive repertoire of theatre shows include Hello Dolly, Rock Hard (60's Tribute show), Hot Stuff, a 70's tribute show (5 seasons and 2 national tours), The Ultimate Hen Party (season and national tour), The Wizard of Oz (as the most glamorous wicked witch), and The Rocky Horror Show (as Frank-n-Furter, of course!).
Catch Ceri on stage at Pieter Toerien's Theatre On The Bay from 17 – 21 September, before heading to Montecasino in Johannesburg from 25 - 29 September.
