The #WeeklyMashup is an infectiously entertaining show that delves into the inner workings of relationships, lessons learned through our daily lives, and a mashup of what everyone is talking about. All done with a huge dose of humour!

Despite its optimistic title, Shakespeare's All's Well That Ends Well has often been considered a "problem play." Ostensibly a comedy, the play also has fairy tale elements, as it focuses on Helena, a virtuous orphan, who loves Bertram, the haughty son of her protectress, the Countess of Rousillon. When Bertram, desperate for adventure, leaves Rousillon to serve in the King's army, Helena pursues him. (Summary by Elizabeth Klett)

One of Shakespeare’s most popular plays, As You Like It is a pastoral comedy of mistaken identity, wit, and love. Daughter of a banished duke and forced to flee the court, Rosalind hides in the Forest of Arden disguised as a man. When her true love Orlando also shows up in the forest, she courts him without revealing her identity. Meanwhile, Phebe mistakenly falls in love with her disguise, Silvius pines for Phebe, Jacques philosophizes, and Touchstone makes fun of it all, and love and happiness triumph (for the most part) as Rosalind orchestrates a happy ending amid the confusion. (Summary by Rosalind Wills)

The award-winning duo of comedian Stuart Taylor and director Heinrich Reisenhofer have teamed up to create yet another sure-fire comedy that features witty stories, astute observations and thought-provoking punch lines that will have you bent over with laughter.

In his light-hearted, infectious style Taylor comes to grip with our current financial crisis and the drive to keep up with the Khumalos, and shares some humorous tips on how to get through the rough patch.

“If you've ever thought, 'I can't believe how broke I am,' this show is for you. If you ever opened your bond account and thought, 'I can't believe I owe someone this much money,' this show is for you. If lately you've had to give up luxuries like naked sushi and replace it with a can of pilchards on your wife's tummy, this show is certainly for you!” adds Taylor.
