Ballet to me evokes memories of my childhood. Dress-ing up and going to the theatre. Leaning over thewall of the orchestra pit before the performance and

watching the musicians warm up. The beautiful strains

of Tchaikovsky thrilled my 7 year old soul as the cur-

tain lifted to reveal a magical world of ballet. Rec-

ognising a few steps that the ballerinas execute that

I had learnt at my Wednesday afternoon ballet lessons

and being mesmerised by the beauty of the dancers,

costumes and staging! - Megan

How long has CTCB been going for?

75 years

Tell us about Encore and the fresh audience

approach?

I am very excited about what Encore is doing for

CTCB and the direction in which it is

leading the ballet company. It is so inspiring be-

ing around people who share a common passion and

work together towards the same ultimate goal.

What is Encore?

Encore is a group of young, energetic,

enthusiastic, passionate and glamorous profession-

als who have been brought together by their love of

ballet. They brainstorm, fundraise and network all

in the name of Ballet!

If there was one production you could put on,

what would it be?

We would LOVE to put on La flle mal Gardee! It

is a beautiful comical ballet in 2 acts,

literally translated it means The Guarded girl,

It is a story of a girl and a boy who want to

marry but the girls mother wants her to marry

a dimwitted but very rich man. The ballet is

charming and delightful. We have never been

able to put it on because the rights are so

expensive.

Why is the arts important?

The Arts are SO very important to a persons

education and well being. The arts feed our

soul! They give us beauty and light in a

progressively more unstable and dark world.

How can we book for up and coming performances?

You can book your tickets through computicket

and Dial-a-Seat. We do have a website that is

in the process of being upgraded:www.capetowncityballet.org.za

We also have a facebook group everyone can join

for the latest CTCB news!

Spring is around the corner, so I thought I would search the web andnd ut what evernes view is n ur up and cming seasn/s. Plus

it is the Cape Town Fashion week, so be sure not to miss out, especiallysince you can catch up on all the latest trends hitting our shores over

the next couple of months.S this is what I fund:.

HOT panTS & BOy SHORTS

It is all about the legs. Best you get down to the gym or bikram yoga

and tone your gorgeous limbs. Yes, hot pants and boy shorts are thecall fr the seasn, plus if u can aunt it all, pt fr the even shrter-than-short pants.

Knee HigH & OVeR THe Knee SOCKS

I have never been a fan of this look, not even in school when every-one followed the trend. I do know some people who use this option

for dressing up games. So layer it over your tights and if you have a

super cl pair f scks the can add vlumes t ur utt- knckyourselves out!

STRipeS

Stripes remind me of Wheres Wally? However, I am a fan of the nau-

tical look. So this summer is all about stripes. Dont be afraid to mix andmatch it as stripes with prints can be very daring! One look I do enjoy

is a nautical striped cotton vest, with a pair of leopard print skirt or

shorts dress your shoe accordingly .

Let start with the swing open upwards doors. AMG decided to

keep this feature as traditional as possible with gas struts, Manu-al! Its been decided, not only because this will add in an extra40.82kg to have an auto closing system built in, and slows yourpull away down, but in case of that granny taxi driver turningtoo slow, eish, the doors can be detached, which will allow youfast access t leave the car.

THE

RUDIMENTALS

GIve our frInGe readers a brIef HIstory of tHe band, wHen dId Itstart, wHen dId It aLL coMe toGetHer?

JoDy (J): The rhythm section had been jamming for a few years (looking for theright front person) and one day Teboz responded to an Ad in the Cape Ads.once the hked up it all wed frm there. The picked up the brass sec-tion (at the time we were all on the jazz scene aching to play big stages so we

jumped at it). Over the years weve had some personnel changes such as TonyFingers on keys, Bong on bass and Doc Mike on lead guitar.

an 8 pIece ska/reGGae band, does It Get crazy at tIMes or areyou one bIG dysfunctIonaL faMILy wHo puLLs It toGetHer just

before you HIt tHe staGe?

Teboz (T): You can say that, but dysfunctionality is not one of our characters. Therudies is a very tight family, focused and always on toppa tings. Having fun isone thing that we dont forget so we are one big fun loving crew that is tight off

and on stage.

(J): You right, its crazy so it takes a combination of people. Our managernormally starts the process and gets us into one place. Doc raises an eyebrow,after that were all focused and ready for war. Teboz runs us through the set,

then its lock n load.

WHO WRiTeS THe LyRiCS anD aRe THeRe any Main THeMeS ORTOpiCS yOu WRiTe aBOuT FRequenTLy?

(T): We all write lyrics although a few individuals tend to sing them. We writeabout politics, violence AIDS social issues and even soccer!!. And yes we singabout love too!!

(J): We all write the music and I think all f us inuence the lrical cntentdirectly or indirectly. But Id have to say Teboz is the driving force behind thelyrics.

wHats tHe MusIc-MakInG process LIke especIaLLy sInce Its sucH

a bIG band?

(J): Its a beautiful mess. We insist on writing tunes together. Someone comeswith an idea and we all contribute. Everyone in the band comes from differentmusical backgrounds(hip hop, reggae, rock, jazz etc.) so I think its the mix of allof us that results in the Rudimental sound.

How Has your MusIc evoLved sInce you fIrst started pLayInG

toGetHer?(J): We started ff plaing predminantl ska mixed with kwela, reggae anddub, and used that as a vehicle. But over the years weve matured our sound.Its denitel still reggae inuenced but ull hear a lt mre sul, hip-hp andDancehall creeping in. Whatever it is (weve given up trying to classify it), its

100% South African and 100% Rudimental.

(T): The music has evlved fr sure t nd its wn peple and its wn new iden-tity so to speak. This being a result of the different players of instrument and alsothe varied musical backgrounds of most them Rude Bwouys!

wHat do you tHInk tHe bIGGest cHaLLenGe Has been as a band?

(T): Keeping the band members excited and mtivated as well as fcused nthe music itself. There are ther challenges such as nance, egs and all that,but the band is much bigger than all that rasclaat boogoyaga we no dealdat!!!

(J): C-rdinating the perfrmance schedule f a prfessin band with eightguys who all have day jobs.

(T): I think the rewards cme with passin and excellence f executin anddeliveryOff the top of your head what was your favourite gig and what was your worst?

How can fans-to-be GaIn access to your MusIc?

Right, so we are a generation obsessed with looking good and want-ing to look like the Hollywood stars meaning bright eyed and busy

tailed. To be honest, I am not the kind of person who would rush out formy botox shot or chemical peel or anything remotely to do with recon-

struction of any sorts. My philosophy, take care of yourself in a naturalmanner.

In modern day society it can be a tough one our daily routines are

scheduled to non-stop being out and about, meetings and social envi-ronments and godly hours we have no control over. Where am I going

with all this?

Well, I have fund a new prduct, which excites me and denitel hasmy daily routine include that of spending time with myself. In fact I put

time aside for this ritual.

QMS MEDICOSMETICS is not a new product on the market, but one

which has been rened and reintrduced int the beaut industr.The product has been around for over 15 years and DR Eric Schulte,the founder of the brand who specialises in QMS MEDICOSMETICS has

put together a good range of amazing products to be used on a dailybasis.

6 weeks ago, I started my collagen treatment and I cannot even begin

to tell you how amazing the effect has been. My skin has slowly started

t regenerate, becme plumper, tight and denitel wrinkle free. ok,dont get me wrong, I did not have bad skin before, nor did I have

wrinkles unless I smiled and pulled the face. The treatment itself is ofanother standard It lasts for 1, 5 hrs and you have 3 stages to the ac-tual treatment.

Besides the collagen treatment, they also have Botox, which is not nee-dled based!!! Hw fabulus! S if u want t nd ut mre n the QMS

MEDICOSMETIC range visit www.msmdcosmtcs.comWith studios based in Johannesburg, Cape Town and Durban, there is

no excuse for you not to go and experience what they have to offer.
