After triumphant appearances around the country, the Mzansi Tenors, hosted by Richard Cock and supported by Rand Merchant Bank, are coming to Pieter Toerien’s Montecasino theatre from 21 June – 25 June.

Only 6 performances!

Guest appearance by Nádine (Jesus Christ Superstar, Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, Musiek Roulette), and introducing Sinesipho Mnyango.

Their dynamic Opera-style programme includes tenor arias, signature African pieces, Neapolitan favourites and musical theatre memories.

“They are a South African sensation,” says Rand Merchant Bank’s Carolynne Waterhouse. “They could hold their own anywhere in the world. RMB is enormously proud to be able to help in celebrating, rewarding and nurturing such phenomenal talent through the RMB Talent Unlocked programme.”
