KickstArt’s Winnie the Pooh opened at the Elizabeth Sneddon Theatre last week and will run until July 16.
Winnie the Pooh features a cast of new children playing Christopher Robin, Roo, Rabbit’s friends and relations, and Alexander Beetle, complementing the KickstArt regulars playing the much-loved characters.
It stars Blessing Xaba as Pooh, Iain Robinson as Eeyore, Lyle Buxton as Owl, Amahle Tembe as Piglet, Roland Perold as Rabbit, Keryn Scott as Kanga and Micah Stojakovic as Tigger.
The children are Botshela Monyele/Kanyi Monyele as Rabbit; Cassidy Hartman/Olivia Snell as
