Tonya Koenderman
is back in town with her one woman hit show, "Liza with a
"T"", directed by Neil Lessick. It is a tribute to the great
Liza Minnelli and has been performed to sell out houses and critical acclaim in
Port Elizabeth, Grahamstown, Durban, Cape Town, Namibia, Bloemfontein and
Johannesburg.
The show tells
the story of Liza's life - her close relationship with her father, her struggle
to conquer drug and alcohol abuse, her many relationships, and of the influence
her mother Judy Garland had over her. But mainly the show pays tribute to the
songs Liza made famous:
"Cabaret", "Mein Herr", "Maybe this Time",
"Money Money", "New York, New York", and many more.
Hours of careful
study of Liza Minnelli's moves and music resulted in a show that has brought
great success for Tonya. Her impersonation has been so impressive that she was
invited to star in the look-alike, sound-alike show, "Stars in Your
Eyes" in 1996. This was such a success that she became the only local
artist to perform in the international show, "Beyond Belief" which
ran for 18 months at the Sun City Extravaganza.
Other cabarets to
Tonya's credit are "The Doo Wah Girls" directed by Kevin Feather' as
well as "We 3" with Gordon Mulholland and Paul Andrews. Her one-woman
shows include "Age of Aquarius",
"Divas to a
T", "Tonya Unwrapped", and "Makin' Whoopee".
Tonya has worked
at Caesar's Casino as the guest artist in the dance extravaganza
"Dazzle" directed by Bryan Bester, and "Celebrate" directed
by Billy Hogg and Amber Baty. She most recently teamed up with fellow
performer, Anne-Marie Clulow for the show, "All of Woman" and
"Shake Your Bootie".
Tonya has done
extensive corporate entertainment for companies such as Standard Bank, Nedbank,
VW, Gillette, Appletizer, Coca Cola, SA Breweries, and Investec, to name but a
few. She has worked extensively
overseas, to places as far afield as Australia, Seychelles and Morrocco.
"Liza with a
"T"" will be on at the Rhumbelow from the 17th to the 19th of
February, 2006.
