The nineties will always be remembered as the last great decade in music history. 90s Mania is a celebration of this cool decade filled with a variety of pop, rock, alternative, old school and a collection of one-hit wonders! Featuring an 11-piece cast of singers, dancers and musicians – 90s Mania is a blast from the past where we saw an emergence of new bands such as Nirvana, Counting Crows, Eagle-Eye Cherry and many more. We also saw the emergence of a new selection of rock and pop divas including Alanis Morissette, Cher, Mariah Carey, Celine Dion, Gloria Estefan as well as new male rockers including Robbie Williams, Lenny Kravitz and Ricky Martin. The hip-hop scene achieved popularity with Coolio and Will Smith, whilst the boy and all-girl groups emerged with a vengeance – with names such as The Spice Girls, Destiny’s Child, Backstreet Boys, Westlife, Boyz II Men and NSYNC – all dominating the 90s pop charts. Old school rock also made its mark with groups such as Genesis, Mike and The Mechanics, Roxette and UB40 whilst South African music took to the world stage with names such Brenda Fassie, Mandoza and Vicky Sampson’s African Dream, that celebrated the birth of a new South Africa in 1994. You bet, hands down – the nineties had some of the best music and 90s Mania is an awesome night out bringing back those memories, songs and parties. So don’t miss out on the 90s Mania and this ultimate 90s party! Show on at barnyard Rivonia from 31 May – 10 July. Tickets start from R 180. Tickets available on www.barnyardtheatre.co.za |
