press release 2009


Show & Tell 2009

Not for the first time, friends and unknowns will descend on the tiny sub-Karoo hamlet (a place is a hamlet when a guide book says it is) of Matjiesfontein on the 2nd and 3rd of October 2009 for South Africa’s damn well nicest and best dressed* happening: Show & Tell.
Anyone can come. You too. It works like Show & Tell worked when you were a little cutie with ponytails who took a wounded Namakwaduifie in to Mrs Goosens’s class. Yes, you must do something. You can sing a song, hum Nkosi Sikilele, draw pictures of toenails, stick poems to the doorposts, create a labyrinth (last year’s was so good we lost four dear friends in there), organize a game of naked touch rugby or DJ the Koue Bokkeveld Skank or ANYTHING your precious Liqui Fruit box heart desires. And then you must come to Matjies, and share it with some of the funnest people you’ll meet outside of an AA meeting which decides to meet at Kaizer Chiefs home games, Main Stand, block G, row J.

* debatable

words by Toast Coetzer


The small print: Show & Tell is not a commercial undertaking, so all participants are responsible for their own accommodation, costs, logistics and technical requirements for your contribution.
