Frank Opperman’s hit one-man show “Rooikaart” travels to the Golden Valley Casino for one night only on Saturday 3 December.
Rooikaart is the story of Wally Koekemoer, president of a local rugby club somewhere out in the sticks, presiding over the club’s annual prize-giving ceremony. But all is not well, attendance is poor, with not even the prize-winners in attendance. With his favourite tipple as moral support, Wally soldiers on because the show must go on.
As his drinking continues, Wally unveils what is happening behind the scenes in the life of the club. The skeletons in Wally Koekemoer’s own closet also begin to appear, one after the other.
What follows is hilarious. Wally reminds you of somebody you have met in real life, and some of his utterances ring all too true.
Star of stage, TV and screen Frank Opperman brings his talent and years of expertise to the role of Wally Koekemoer and you will leave Rooikaart with a smile on your face and a sense of compassion.
And of course, Frank is one of Worcester’s own, he was at both Worcester Oos Laerskool and Worcester High from 1973-1975.
Rooikaart is at Winners action bar at the Golden Valley Casino at 21h00 on Saturday 3 December 2011. Tickets are R50 each. Demand is high, book early.
