Naledi Awards open to the public

Gracing the presenter's rostrum are theatre and television personalities Robert Whitehead, Sello Maake ka Ncube, Fiona Ramsay, Nat Ramabulane, Princess Zinzi-Mhlongo, Kgomotso Matsunyane, Sindi Mabe, and Napo Masheane. They're joined by local celebs Khensani and Zam of Stoned Cherrie, and Loyiso Bala of The Bala Brothers.

A cross-cultural medley

The big shows of last year will be represented in the evening's line-up, so stand by for a cross-cultural medley from the multi-nominated Songs of Migration, Angela Killian delivering her powerhouse showstopper from the Toerien production of Evita, and Kate Normington, Gina Shmukler and Ilse Klink doing their playful Donna and the Dynamo's routine from Mamma Mia.

Alan Committee and Terence Bridgett will also be providing interludes in their own unique and quirky fashion.
