Sat 9 Feb at 15:00 Abigail Kubeka Birthday Celebration 
Legendary apartheid-era singer-songwriter, musical arranger and actress Abigail Kubeka returns to her teenage roots in Sophiatown, teaming up with Grammy-nominated singer Sharon Katz and her band the Peace Train for a special birthday concert. This is not the first time Kubeka and Katz have joined forces; they toured the US together and in 2011 released the Double Take album with Dolly Rathebe. They once again join forces for a trip down memory lane, performing favourites and classics from their extensive careers.
