A Night of Stars

Following the success of Stargaze, non-profit organisation Dance for All continues its 21st anniversary celebrations with A Night of Stars, a fundraising event to be held at Cape Town's prestigious Grand Café and Beach on Wednesday 3 October, 2012. The evening's highlight will be a showcase of Cape Town celebrities donning their dancing shoes to show off their moves.

Comedy diva and inspirational entertainer Irit Noble will act as MC, while the celebrity dancers will include Saskia Falken (presenter of The Mid-Morning Mix on Heart 104.9 FM), Lynelle Kenned (My Top Billing Dream finalist), Andrew Barnes (e.tv anchor), Lushwill Rossouw (winner of Bar One Manhunt Season 2), and Derek van Dam (e.tv meteorologist).

Auction and mystery prizes

In addition to dancing by the stars (trained on the night by professional Latin and ballroom partners), guest entertainment will include live music and performances by tenor James Bhemgee (winner of SA's Got Talent Season 2), Dancesport champion Grant Mandon with his partner Gabi Geffen, and the exotic Soma Fusion Bellydance Company. As part of the fundraiser, a number of items will also be auctioned and envelopes containing mystery prizes will be up for grabs.

Pre-entertainment begins at 6.30pm with belly-dancing and African dancing to live drumming. The rest of the programme follows from 8pm. Choose between a three-course sit-down meal at R650 a ticket or lounge and mingle informally while enjoying delicious canapés at R450 a ticket. Booking for a full table of 10 costs R5000. A cash bar will be available. To book, call +27 (0)21 697 5509 or email az.oc.llarofecnad@nimda
