A spectacular extravaganza of dance and song will wow audiences at the Lyric Theatre, at Gold Reef City, on September 30.<\/p>\n

The show is being staged in celebration of Cervical Cancer Awareness Month, to highlight the fact that there is now a life-saving vaccine bringing hope to young women all over the world.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

The shows are presented by Dance for a Cure, a non-profit organisation which helps to supply vaccines to disadvantaged young people.<\/p>\n

Since 2008 it has raised more than R2-million towards immunisation.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

The show reflects on the past and narrates the Dance for a Cure story, entitled \u201cLet the memories live on\u201d, which reminds us to be mindful of where we have come from, in order to know where we are going.<\/p>\n

It will be hosted by funny-man Jason Goliath and will open with Sibongile Mngoma\u2019s golden voice.<\/p>\n

Featured artists include multi-awarding winning ballerina Kristin Wilson, SA\u2019s renowned KMAD, Strictly Come Dancing stars Jeanne Swart and Grant Esterhuizen.<\/p>\n

Dance for a Cure will be wowing the audience at Gold Reef City\u2019s Lyric Theatre on September 30.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Strength artists Amor and Gerhard will perform a dance style known as Adagio, a combination of the strength, balance and agility of gymnastics, blended with the beauty and fluidity of classical dance.<\/p>\n

The evening brings a month-long campaign to an end called #Smear4smearSA to an end.<\/p>\n

This project encourages women to have their pap smears, smear their lipstick and take a selfie and make a donation towards a pap smear or vaccine for an underprivileged woman and to nominate somebody else to do the same.<\/p>\n

This spectacular performance of song and dance will be followed by champagne and dessert, sponsored by catering company By Word of Mouth.<\/p>\n

Audience members will be able to show off their stylish support with the photo booths and \u201cGlam Stands\u201d that will also be available on the night.<\/p>\n

The show starts at 8pm.<\/p>\n
