SIMPLY THE BEST – Tribute to the Queen of Rock

Another “first” for South Africa – SIMPLY THE BEST premiered on The Mandela stage at Joburg Theatre this week and will run until March 20th 2011.

Rebecca O’Connor is simply the best as Tina Turner. Rebecca first came to international attention as the winner of the prestigious European impersonation competition STARS IN THEIR EYES in 2002, in front of thirty-three million television viewers.

The Irish-born star then returned to her home to focus on her new dynamic project, The Tina Turner Tribute Show SIMPLY THE BEST, which subsequently toured Europe to great success. On stage with her full live band, Rebecca O’Connor’s rendition of Tina Turner Classics will leave you breathless. In the words of Tina Turner herself, “Rebecca is so good, she’s scary. If I only had her energy today, I’d still be touring!”

Based on Tina Turner’s live concerts SIMPLY THE BEST features a full band (many of the musicians are South African), a fantastic lighting show and with Rebecca O’Connor bringing to the stage all the excitement and energy of one of the world’s most popular entertainers.

Tickets are priced from R160 and are on sale now exclusively by visiting www.joburgtheatre.com and purchasing your print-at-home ticket on the internet, or by calling the theatre’s new direct ticketing line on 0861 670 670.

Tickets for Joburg Theatre’s shows no longer add the traditional ticketing agency booking fee, so the price you see advertised is the price you pay. Subsequently, the theatre’s tickets are no longer available at Computicket.

SIMPLY THE BEST is brought to South Africa by Showtime Australia in association with Kaya FM.
