Pieter-Dirk Uys and Evita Bezuidenhout are often mentioned in the same breath, but they could never be in the same room together, or meet one another face-to-face.<\/p>\n

She has been in his satirical cluster for over 30 years and he keeps on dieting for her.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

And yet, once in a blue moon, the impossible is not so unlikely — both Pieter-Dirk Uys and Evita Bezuidenhout will be together on stage.<\/p>\n

When the most famous white woman in South Africa enters Emperors Palace, what can one expect?<\/p>

<\/div>\n

A coup d’\u201atat?<\/p>\n

A royal flush?<\/p>\n

A laugh a line?<\/p>\n

Over the Women’s Day weekend (August 9 and 10), expect only the best from Pieter-Dirk Uys.<\/p>\n

In his first performances in the Theatre of Marcellus, he brings an entire company to support Tannie Evita: some old — a saamtrek of Bothas; some blue — Evita’s sexy sister; some borrowed – but all for you.<\/p>\n

Don’t forget the politicians who have always been his scriptwriters, since way back in the 1980s, and today the democratic government of a rainbow nation does not let him down.<\/p>\n

Evita and Co will feature much-loved characters such as the ever-green Nowell Fine from Saxonwold, the always opinionated Mrs Petersen from the Cape Flats, the outrageous sex-guru Madame Bambi Kellermann, as well as the political Numbers One, Two and Three, who have made up our complement of kings, clowns and comrades.<\/p>\n

There will be a surprise in each show, as Tannie Evita has invited some very special friends to join her for a Women’s Day chat, maybe also a song, but always a dance of entertainment.<\/p>\n

This show has been specially created for a weekend that is special, not just for women, but also for families and friends.<\/p>\n

And, some months after a General Election, anything is possible with Pieter-Dirk Uys and the legendary Evita Bezuidenhout.<\/p>\n
