Fascinating AïDA: Cheap Flights SA Tour

Following a sold-out season at Pieter Toerien’s Montecasino Theatre in January 2011, we are delighted to announce that the FASCINATING AIDA team is returning in January 2013!

Captain Dillie Keane, navigator Adele Anderson and soprano Liza Pulman (returning to her previous role as air marshal) look forward to touching down in Johannesburg and will be on stage at Pieter Toerien’s Montecasino Theatre from Tuesday 15 Jan till Sunday 27 Jan.

“Cabaret Heaven" ★★★★★ Metro

Still Britain's best comedy cabaret trio and now a global internet sensation, FASCINATING AïDA have been much invigorated by over nine MILLION YouTube hits on their infamous anthem to budget travel Cheap Flights. The video has been watched by literally millions of people worldwide, has graced the home-page of a certain Irish discount airline's website, been tweeted by The Economist as a method of cheering-up the nation and has been described as "very clever and very funny" by the editors at Travel Weekly, the national newspaper of the travel industry. Fans can now enjoy their new hit Down With The Kids (www.youtube.com/user/FascinatingAida ) which see the FA Crew hip-hop dancing and Ms Keane (rebranded P DILLIE) looking 'bootylicious in her padded spanx'.

“The satirical blows are dispatched with the sweetest of smiles.... a delight” ★★★★★ The Times

This show was premiered at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2011, and has sold-out a seventy date UK tour and a five week London season. This show will include several numbers hot off the press plus a few old favourites, including their now infamous anthem to budget travel ‘Cheap Flights’ and 'The Dogging Song', a fond homage to the joys of al fresco sex described last year by The Times as "…the dirtiest & funniest song of the century so far".
