Casta Diva Boutique Hotel, nestled high on the northern slopes of the Magaliesberg, is like no other hotel. The guests are met at the parking area and shown to reception with a warm, welcoming smile. The property itself (just under two hectares of lush, green garden) is breathtakingly beautiful. The rooms are individually decorated without any clutter, and the on-site restaurant guarantees a culinary adventure. Ask your host about the special of the day, or order one of the signature dishes from the á la carte menu, such as the Dutch Style Beef Fillet.
There is also an intimate theatre/art gallery where guests can enjoy a performance by some local talent. The establishment prides itself on arts and cultural development by hosting young, up-and-coming talent as often as possible.
On stage at Casta Diva’s Vissi d’Arte Theatre in May:
Mother’s Day Concert
Mothers are teachers of compassion, love and fearlessness. Mothers, and women in general, ought to be celebrated, loved and shown appreciation for. The Baritone Duo and a Tenor will celebrate Mother’s Day the best way they can, by singing beautiful songs that will touch hearts, bring smiles to faces and make mothers and women feel special. The repertoire will include songs like ‘Mama’, ‘Unforgettable’, and ‘Thula Mama’. Performance date: 12 May at 15:00.
All Jazzed Up by Tonya Koenderman
The year is 1939. The place is New Orleans. And the streets are alive with jazz – Louis Armstrong, Dizzy Gillespie, Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra, etc. The world was at war, and people were depressed, disillusioned, and poverty-stricken. But extreme times usually call for extreme creativity and self-expression – some of the greatest songs of all time were written during this period. Come and enjoy a laid-back evening with acclaimed cabaret artist Tonya Koenderman, and sing along to some great jazz classics. Koenderman adds her own spice and sparkle to the likes of ‘Autumn Leaves’, ‘My Funny Valentine’, ‘Dream a Little Dream’, ‘L-O-V-E’, ‘At Last’, ‘Cry Me a River’, and a host of others. Performance date: 25 May at 19:30.
