A Night with Nataniel

I do like a bit of drama, role play and fabulousness in my life so my Mom, Rene and I went to see Nataniel’s show on Wednesday evening and my oh my did I have a good time. It was my first time to any of his shows (yes I was a Nataniel virgin), but it was fantastic. I must say the two hours felt like ten minutes though.

This man has a way with words – he tells stories about ordinary people doing ordinary things in ordinary places but he makes it so interesting – some people can just tell a story and others should just shut the hell up. And the voice – I must admit I was quite shocked to hear such a strong singing voice coming from this man (as his “speaking” voice is um well different). And don’t forget the guy on the piano – fantastic (of course his surname is du Plessis – good genes).

This was Rene’s second “theatre experience” and definitely one of many more to come if is up to me, and guess what, It Is. I cannot believe that he has lived for 36 years without a bit of theatre in his life. I have now made it my personal mission to drag him kicking and screaming to every show possible as I think he lost out on something fabulous.

When I told Rene that I want to go to the show his reaction was all but enthusiastic as he reminded me that Nataniel is gay - As if that was a surprise! Well, gay or not, I love him; with the make-up the lack of hair and the strange voice – his interesting.

I also reminded Mr Know-It-All that this gay Nataniel has been doing this for a looooong time so I think he has a winning recipe going here.

My Mom (Kobie’s Mother) laughed so much and I was so happy to see her giggling like a school girl. Yay me for taking her!!!

Needless to say Rene actually enjoyed the show and had a bit of a laugh and a giggle – he looked sooo sexy. I do like a man with a sense of humour that enjoy life and laughter.
