The Buccaneers in Durban

The Buccaneers is a light-hearted musical and interactive dinner experience featuring songs like the McCulley's Workshop song of the same name, Whisky In the Jar (Thin Lizzy/Metallica), Don't Stop Till You Get Enough (Michael Jackson), Ready to Run (Dixie Chicks) and is currently running at uShaka Marine World's Upper Deck until 4 Sepember, 2010.

Like its Predecessor, Born in the RSA, The Buccaneers doesn't follow the traditional supper theatre format, allowing for plenty of ad-libbing and audience participation. On arrival, guests can choose one item of pirate apparel - an eye patch, kerchief or a hook - and then prepare to find themselves sword-fighting, deck-swabbing and treasure hunting.

Comely wenches

Hosted by Captain Bess and her comely wenches (who just happen to serve up a few drinks before taking to the stage), the show is gatecrashed by a rowdy bunch of hard-drinking, sword-fighting pirates.

The Buccaneers stars Bandile Hlope, Rory Booth, Brendon Mendez, Krystle Temmerman and Lyle Buxton and runs every Thursday to Saturday until 4 September, 2010. Booking is via Computicket. Buffet Dinner and show is R169 with complimentary cocktail on arrival. For more information call +27 (0)31 328 8107.
