When last have YOU been to a leqqa (we say “leqqa” with a qaaf, die regte tajweed!) musical show, where not only was there a strictly pre-millenial old school playlist, but also where the audience was up on their feet and jolling to every single track for the entire second act?! Wednesday night this week at the Artscape Theatre’s Opera House is our response! The Best of Boogie show by Ganarama Productions, led by Rafiek Mammon and Gary Naidoo, celebrates their 10 year anniversary of bringing 80’s and 90’s music to Cape Town, and Cultsha Kennis was qwaai enough to be invited to the opening night of this show! It was just ‘n paar ure right before Best of Boogie, when we finished watched Pose , a Netflix series that celebrates the Afro-American transsexual community in 1980’s New York, and the fashion, music and ballroom culture that existed outside of mainstream culture during that decade. So you can imagine the butterflies of excitement we had for Best of Boogie after Pose
