Hot news if you love a good laugh! Popular stage star Lisa Bobbert
(Defending the Planet, Brutal Tunes) unleashes her lethal comedic skills once
more.
Macbob Productions presents
Bobbert Uncut
Lisa’s latest solo stage show reunites the actress with director
Caroline Smart, Durban’s veteran mistress of comedy. Their sensational
collaboration on Brutal Tunes two years ago spawned a smash hit. If you’re new
to the experience, be warned. Bobbert’s a hazard to tender abs. You may end up
aching on all fours in the aisles. In Bobbert Uncut, prepare to meet Lisa in
kaleidoscopic mode, shown up by a gallery of alter-egos and others, whose lives
have crossed paths with hers. Hilarious personal retrospectives date back to
her Rosebank Convent schooldays in the ’80s. Stand by for an unfortunate
encounter in a pub, as hard-nosed (“Alcohol leads to vahlence”) Chantal dishes
out a klap or two to Lisa and her mate. Those “big-ass, big-hair Sandton
chicks” have been checking out her cool dude boy friend, Rat . . .
As Bobbert turns the mirror on Lisa, handing it from one ‘presenter’
to the next, a succession of sharply-drawn portraits by all-too-transparent
narrators emerge. Hogging the spotlight (whenever she can) is Lisa’s lifelong
best-friend, Charmaine, a signature character in the McIlroy-Bobbert stable.
She never really had much time for our girl. True to comedy at its richest, Bobbert
Uncut suggests life is more than just a giggle. Its physically punishing script
(those poor abs) is touched with some bittersweet undertones, and spiked with a
selection of songs, sometimes whacky, sometimes telling (Will You Still Love Me
Tomorrow, Brass in Pocket, Pata Pata, Don’t Stop Me Now, Absolutely
Everybody).…
