It takes a lot to make a statement in the Mother City, but Brendan van Rhyn – aka Cathy Specific sure knows how to make an entrance!
As one of the country’s most recognisable talents in the theatre scene, van Rhyn has gone on to open Gate 69, a plus cabaret theatre venue in the heart of Cape Town’s Bree Street. Decorated in plush purples and golds, with brocade wallpaper, the old auction house has been given a new lease on life.
Tickets cost R550 and include a mezze-style dinner, hot bread service, soup and dessert – and, of course, a show.
