Six of the Best (13–17 March)
The Barnyard Theatre Productions presents a tribute to surpass all tributes, as we celebrate the music of the six greatest pop icons of all time. Imagine a concert featuring Freddie Mercury, Bon Jovi, Meat Loaf, Billy Joel, Pink and Cher all on one stage in one show, singing number one hits from the last four decades of pop music. These artists have dominated the charts to such a degree and made such an impact on the music industry that it is essential to stage a special tribute!
The show features a repertoire that was made in Rock and Roll Heaven. Just imagine Meat Loaf challenging the vocal ability of Freddie who in turn has to compete with Bon Jovi! Then we have the power and beauty of Pink, and the soulfulness of Billy, and of course let's not forget the flamboyance and decadence of Cher!
Six of the Best is about showmanship and charisma and the music all comes together in one big concert that will simply blow your mind! So get ready to experience the hottest rock and pop stars on the planet in one of the greatest Barnyard shows that makes them simply – Six of the Best!
The show has not yet been seen in Johannesburg so is a real first for Harare. The cast then returns to Johannesburg to launch the Barnyard Theatre's brand new theatre at Rivonia.
Early bird bookings (so you can get that favourite table) can be made by emailing <mailto:boxoffice@dae.co.zw>.

Performing Arts Bulawayo [PAB] and the Academy [Bulawayo]
Frozen Planet & Downton Abbey: Series 2 (1, 8 & 15 March)
Thursdays 23 February and 1, 8 & 15 March in the Robert Sibson Hall at 7.00 p.m.
These two outstanding series continue in March. "Frozen Planet" begins at 7.00 and "Downton Abbey " at 8.15 after a short interval.
Supper is available from 6.00 p.m. but must be booked in advance on 60684 / 67195
Admission: $3.00 [free to film members]
Orff: Carmina Burana & Mahler: Symphony No.8 (2 March)
Friday 2 March in the Robert Sibson Hall at 6.30 p.m.
"Carmina Burana", by turns boisterous and lyrical, sets poems written by medieval monks celebrating life’s pleasures, especially springtime, food and drink, and love both ribald and tender. The performance features Kathleen Battle and Sir Thomas Allen with an outstanding Japanese choir and the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Seiji Ozawa. After the interval comes Mahler’s Eighth Symphony in which Riccardo Chailly conducts massed forces (over 500 performers) at a concert which formed part of Leipzig’s centenary International Mahler Festival.
Supper is available during the interval but must be booked in advance on 60684 / 67195
Admission: $3.00 [free to Red Carpet members]
Donizetti: Don Pasquale (9 March)
Friday 9 March Donizetti: Don Pasquale, Robert Sibson Hall at 6.30 p.m.
Don Pasquale was among the last of Donizetti's 66 operas and has been described as "the ripest" of his comic operas. The plot centres on an elderly bachelor who has decided to marry in order to spite his nephew Ernesto but Norina, the wife chosen for him, happens to be the woman Ernesto loves...
In this production from La Scala, Milan, "Riccardo Muti consistently captures the fun of the piece whilst not neglecting the vein of melancholy that also runs through it. Ferrucio Furlanetto makes an outstanding Don Pasquale", Nuccia Focile, in her La Scala debut, was described as "a delightful Norina with a fresh and agile voice" and Gregory Kunde brought "a Mozartian elegance" to Ernesto's music.
Supper available during the interval
Admission: $3.00 [free to Red Carpet members]
Libor Novacek (piano) (13 March)
Tuesday, 13 March Libor Novacek (piano) Robert Sibson Hall at 7.30 p.m.
Libor Novacek should need little introduction as this will be his fourth visit in recent years. He has performed in North, South and Central America, India, South Africa, Spain, France and Germany as well as extensively in his homeland, the Czech Republic, and in England. His recordings have been very well received and performances of Brahms and Liszt in particular hailed as rivalling the very best already available – and both composers feature in Libor's programme:
- Beethoven: Sonata No.3 in C major, Op.2, No.3
- Brahms: Seven Fantasies, Op.116
- Janáãek: On an Overgrown Path – Book 2
- Liszt: Sonata in B minor
A major musician at the start of what promises to be a terrific career…. there seems something very special about this artist
[James Inverne, Gramophone].
Booking opens on Tuesday 28 February at the Academy
Admission: $10.00 / $5.00 [free to Red Carpet members and subscribers]

Tree Society of Zimbabwe (March)
Saturday, 17 March: Briefing meeting for all Tree society members who are visiting Catapú in Mozambique in April. Details to follow.
Sunday, 18 March: Visit to Kutsaga. We expect to find interesting trees with some well protected habitat. Directions: Take the road to the airport and once there fork left as if going to Manyame Air Base. Continue along this road keeping a look out on the left for the large sign "Tobacco Research Board" and turn through the gate. After a few hundred metres look for a road to the right leading to the Recreation Centre - there will be Tree Society signs. If you get to the big gate near the admin block, you have gone too far. Follow the road to the recreation building and we will park under the trees in the shade. Meet as usual at 0930. Bring your lunch and a chair for an all-day outing.
Saturday, 24 March: Haka Game Park. This is a small park adjoining Cleveland Dam. Directions: Take the Mutare Road out past Jaggers. Turn first left after the "Danhiko" sign on the left, which is also the Cleveland Dam turning. Follow the pine avenue with humps to a sign "Haka" on the left and this track leads to the entrance gate of the game park. We will meet at the Braai area just through the gate. Time: 1430. Be prepared for an entrance fee at the gate.
HERBARIUM FUMIGATION APPEAL
In September 2009 the Zimbabwe Tree Society launched an appeal for funds to enable Zimbabwe's National Herbarium to be fumigated. The response was highly gratifying and the funds raised enabled us to carry out 4 fumigations at approximately 6 monthly intervals. The cost of a single fumigation is US$ 350.
In the intervening period, the financial position of the Herbarium has remained weak and it appears that further support for continuing fumigation will be necessary. I am therefore re-opening the request for funds and would ask everyone to consider making a donation towards this important appeal, the purpose of which is to prevent the important plant collections deteriorating through insect damage.
This appeal is not in any way limited to Tree Society members and I would ask you to spread the word to your friends and any potential donors.
Donations can be made in cash to the Tree Society Treasurer, Bill Clarke (0772-252720), to Terry Fallon (04 481076), or to Isla Grundy (04 745263; 0772-
