The once iconic theatre Luxurama inWynberg is to be remembered with a
new production as a tribute to the grand olddame.Remembering the Lux is set to be a high-
light of the festive season.The play, which is written and directed
by Alistair Izobell and Baxter CEO and ar-tistic director Lara Foot, will bring to lifeand celebrate its history through storiesand classic hit songs in this first-ever hom-age to the legendary Luxurama, built in1963 by Ronnie Quibell.
“I am personally so excited to be honour-ing the Luxurama Theatre, which washome to so many of this city’s audiencesduring its heyday”, Alistair says.
This is a first-time collaboration betweenAlistair and Lara, both accomplished andrespected artists in their respective genres.
The Baxter has launched a special Face-book page called The Lux and members ofthe public are encouraged to join and sharetheir memories, pictures and stories aboutthis once statuesque and vibrant entertain-ment centre.
“We would like to invite local audiencesto join us in this festive season celebrationas we pay tribute to the Lux and urge themto share theirmemories and stories with uson this Facebook page,” Alistair says.
Luxurama Theatre became a vital cultur-al hub for many integrated audiences andit preceded the Three Arts Complex in Die-priver, which was also established by theQuibell brothers. It was the first theatrecomplex to host mixed audiences duringapartheid.
Many top international artists, such asConnie Francis, Dusty Springfield, Engel-bertHumperdink,TomJones, PercySledge,Peaches and Herb, Petula Clark, Jose Feli-ciano, Dobie Gray, Joe Dolan and LovelaceWatkins performed at the Luxurama. Localstars Taliep Petersen, Zayn Adam, Jonat-han Butler, Richard Jon Smith, Ricardo,Ronnie Joyce and Lionel Petersen are justa few of themusic sensations who appearedon the boards. Well-known South Africanbands like the Rockets, the Bats, Rabbit andBallyhoo also battled it out there.
Alistair has assembled a stellar ensemblefor this seasonal show, featuring himself,Terry Fortune, Terry Hector, LoukmaanAdams, Niesha Abrahams, Leslie Klein-smith, Giempie Vardien, Nur Abrahamsand Felicity Keran, accompanied by a six-piece live band led by Donveno Prins.
Most of them have, at some point in theirown careers, performed at the Lux.
“Almost the entire cast in this productionhas performed on that stage and for all ofus, to be able to bring back thosememories,I regard it as a blessing. Teaming up withLara,whohad tremendous successwithherproduction of Scrooge at the Baxter twoyears ago, is another highlight of my careerso far,” he says.
The cast will share anecdotes as they singfamiliar songs, such as “Where the BoysAre”, “IlMondo”, “SpanishEyes”, “StayBe-side Me”, “Puppy Love”, “My Life” and“Delilah”, guaranteed to get audiencemem-bers singing along.Remembering the Lux runs from Thurs-
day 3 December to Wednesday 9 January.Tickets are available from Computicket.

Palmboom Road Park in Newlands is un-dergoing an upgrade to make it more ac-
cessible and user-friendly.A number of improvements are planned
for the park, including the repainting of allpark equipment, installation of rubber mat-ting under the merry-go-round and the re-placement of rubber bumpers on the see-saws.A new gate will be erected to replace the
old and rusted gate which is no longer safeor secure. Parks staff will also trim the vege-tation and conduct a general clean-up of thepark.Palmboom is a very popular andwell-used
park, resulting in wear and tear of the infra-structure. The park is mainly used by resi-dents and child minders who bring babiesand toddlers to play there.Ward councillor Ian Iversen provided
funds from the current ward allocation bud-get for theupgrades.All thework is expectedto be finished by Junenext year andwill costR32 000.Work is already underway and themuddy
footpath has been changed into a concretewalkway,making itmore accessible for resi-dents. The old footpath was potholed andslippery, so it had to be improved. The resur-facing will prevent park users from slippingand falling.The installation of the hard surface and
rubber matting under the play equipmentwill restrict injuries to children who play atthe park.The existing entrance gate is rusted and
needs to be replaced so as to provide a secureand safe means for access control.BelindaWalker,mayoral committeemem-
ber for community services and special pro-
jects, says City parks recognises the impor-tant role that public open spaces play in thephysical and psychologicalwell-being of res-idents, and especially children.“Wewant to seeparks includemore spaces
for active and passive recreation and sportto take place. These spaces will have a two-fold benefit: They will draw more residentsto the park, which increases security, andthey will encourage healthy and active lifes-tyles.“Parks provide for inclusivity, social in-
teraction and the integration of communi-ties. We want our parks to provide safe, con-venient and welcoming natural environ-ments where children, their parents and theelderly can come together to socialise andcelebrate important occasions. I am pleasedto seehowpopular our parks and recreation-al spaces are amongcommunities,” she says.Walker adds that all parks aremaintained
to minimum maintenance standards. How-
ever, some parks pose more challenges thanothers due to weather conditions, overuse,vandalism and antisocial activities.“The City relies heavily on the involve-
ment of communities to assist with manag-ing these facilities. Most of the City’s parksare well cared for by communities. Resi-dents are encouraged to make use of the fa-cilities as this is the best form of security,”she says.Zoleka Faku, a childminder who was at
the parkwhenPeople’s Post visited, says sheis happy about the upgrades.“Some of the equipment was worn out and
we are happy that it will be painted. This isa nice park and we love it so much. We aregrateful that something is being done aboutit, making it more safe and user-friendly.Children really enjoy playing here and I be-lieve theywill play evenmorewhen they seethat the equipment is being repaired andfixed,” she says.

mitment and perseverance after completingdifferent activities over a year period.Sixty pupils received gold awards at a cer-
emony recently held at Bishops in Ronde-bosch to recognise the achievement of com-pleting the challenging requirements for thePresident’s Award.The gold award is the highest level of the
Duke of Edinburgh International Award forYoung People. It requires commitment, per-
severance and dedication to complete andparticipants are voluntarily involved in var-ious activities over a minimum period of ayear.The gold award adds value to a CV and
strengthens job or study applications. Goldaward holders are invited to join the alumniassociation of the President’s Award, calledSAGAHA, enabling them to be exposed tonational or international youth events.Delekile Klass, regional commissioner for
correctional services, was the guest speakerat the ceremony. He said those who wereawarded had been handed tools to achievegreatness.
“You don’t have an excuse anymore.Through perseverance and courage, you canachieve anything,” he said.Luc Janssens, an award recipient and
Bishops pupil, said the President’s Awardmade him realise how fortunate he was.“It has openedmyeyes to theproblems fac-
ing our country today. It sparked a desire forme to help make a change. Not only has thePresident’s Award boostedmyCV, but it hasdeveloped my passion for outreach, whichhas led to me to start my own charity event.It has given me the opportunity to meet andbuild relationships with themost incrediblepeople,” he said.

Work is in progress to have a camera in-stalled at the Claremont interchange
on Stadium on Main.The installation work has started and it
is anticipated that the CCTV system will beoperational by the beginning of December– that’s if the City receives approval forrouting the cabling through the adjacentbuilding.
The area is a stop for Jammie shuttlesused by University of Cape Town studentsand a bus stop, so having a camera therewould enhance commuters’ safety.
The security upgrade is a welcome addi-tion since the stop is isolated and its visibili-ty to the main road is limited. The currentcameras covering the Claremont publictransport interchange (PTI) do not have anadequate view of this area.
This camera is an addition to the camerasthat are already operating in the area.
MonitoringThe CCTV camera will allow security
guards to respond swiftly to any incidentsthat occur around the interchange.
The installation is being made possiblethrough the partnership of the ClaremontImprovementDistrict Company (CIDC), theproperty owner where the camera will beinstalled and the City of Cape Town. TheCity’s transport authority is funding the in-stallation that will cost about R142 000.
The camera feeds into a monitoring sta-tion. Guards on patrol will be alerted to anysuspicious behaviour by the monitors.
Abdul Kerbelker, CIDC executivemanag-
er, says the camera will enhance securityability in the area.“Wehave to be a step aheadwhen it comes
to safety,” he says.“The area is a safe place, but because it’s
busy and a sporting area, it attracts a lot ofpeople, so we have to improve safety regu-larly. This camerawill be adding to the cam-eras that are already there in the area tomake that area safer.”
AppreciationMufaroKasipo, aUCT student, says he re-
ally appreciates all the measures that arebeing taken to make the area safe.“It really gets quiet at times and crimi-
nals can use that opportunity to commitcrime. I’m really happy that there will bea camera installed here; it will make us feeleven safer. At times when you get to thestop, you’re the only one, but when youknow there is a camera, it eases your worryknowing you’re safe,” she says.Apart from the camera that will be in-
stalled the CIDC has been doing some otherthings to make the spot safer.In 2013 it installed lights there as it was
very dark at night, especially in winter.Last year it had the street lines painted
to improve road markings.After the camera is up the CIDC will be
looking into installing seats for commuterswho are waiting for the shuttles.“After thatwewill be looking into the bus
stop seating. It has to be designed in a waythat it won’t be used as a bed by the home-less but for its purpose. This is to improvethe area and make it more accessible andsafe for everyone who is here,” saysKerbelker.

Mowbray singerrising opera starLOUISA STEYL
Fresh from taking third place at an inter-national singing competition, Mow-
bray’s LukhanyoMoyakewill be among thevoices gracing the stage at this year’s Ned-erberg Picnic Pops concert.The tenor recently returned fromGerma-
nywhere he competed against 41 other sing-ers from around the world,to take third place in theNeue Stimmen Internation-al Singing Competition.“It was very tough.”Lukhanyo explains that
many of the other singers inthe competition were moremature.“Many of themare already
working for opera houses allover the world.”This competition was Lu-
khanyo’s second chance go-ing up against internationalsingers. Earlier this year healso competed in the HansGabor Belvedere SingingCompetition in Amsterdam.He says he used the event to assess his ownabilities and learn fromwhat the other com-petitors are doing.When Lukhanyo isn’t sharing his talents
with Europe he can be seen on Cape Townstages as a staff soloist for Cape Town Op-era. He performed the role of Roberto in Do-nizetti’s Maria Stuarda for the companyjust last week.His favourite role is that of Alfredo in La
Traviata. “I like it because of the way thecharacter grows.”Lukhanyo’s opera career stems from a
choral background. After starting out as achoir singer, Lukhanyo started performingas a soloist before deciding to study musicand pursue a professional singing career.On Saturday 21November he’ll be joining
other rising stars as they perform with Ar-no Carstens and the Cape PhilharmonicYouth Orchestra at the Nederburg PicnicPops concert.The annual benefit concert aims to show-
case young and emerging musicians on aplatform where they get the opportunity toshare the stage with more recognisednames.
Lukhanyo believes that it’simportant for artists to edu-cate the next generationabout their chosen disci-pline.“I think established opera
professionals should go toschools and explain every-thing about our art form, sothat when pupils decide to goto university they under-stand how to manage them-selves.”Lukhanyo will be joined by
award-winning sopranoGoit-semang Lehobye and jazzsinger Adelia Douw, amongothers, when he performs atthe picnic concert.
He says the audience can look forward tohearing him sing popular pieces like “Ness-un Dorma”, “O sole Mio” and “Libiamo(Brindisi)”.The concert starts at 18:00 but gates open
at 16:00 and families are encouraged tobring snacks and enjoy the afternoon sun.V Tickets cost R100 each from www.webtickets.co.zaand children under 12 enter free.

Harfield Village residents have come to-gether to launch a community initiative
at Rosmead Central Primary School to helpthe school get a better sports field.The official launch of the initiative hap-
penedonSaturdaymorningwhen local busi-nesses pledged their support to the school.The school wants to have a borehole to allowfor irrigation, which will help them grasstheir soccer field.Currently pupils have to play on a dusty
pitch and the aim of the initiative was to letthemembers of the community come togeth-er and work towards helping the school.The borehole project will cost about
R300 000 and is being led by the Harfield Vil-lage Association (HVA).James Fernie, HVA chairperson, says
they are excited about it and that it is aboutcommunity building more than anything.“We are very excited about extending our
influence to build bridges and help the pu-pils. We have this amazing opportunity andwe want everyone to be involved so that webuild a decent soccer pitch for the school.This will allow people to engage the schooland to build better relations,” he says.One local business, Oblivion, kicked off
the day with a donation of R10 000.Jenman African Safaris has adopted the
school and will organise fundraising eventsto ensure there is money to finish theproject.Liz Rampfshaw, Jenman African Safaris
projectmanager, says: “Sport aides thewell-being of the pupils and they can only excelif their pitch is good and well-maintained.“So we have adopted the school to make
sure that we help them throughout. This is
very important and empowering as well andit also brings the community together. It’sall about education and we want to helpthem as much as we can.“We will have a lot of events to make sure
that they pitch becomes a reality. Apartfrom that we will also have educationalhikes and reading classes to make sure thatthe children succeed,” she says.Ian Kriel, deputy principal of the school,
says the project is not just about the schoolbut to also bring the community together.“We are happy that through the initiative
wewill be able to sink a borehole, whichwillhelp us with irrigation and then we willgrass the pitch and make it beautiful. It’s sooverwhelming to see that people came outto support the event and to make things bet-ter for us.“This is not just for us as the school but
will also attract the community to theschool.Wewill use thepitchduring theweekand they can also make use of it over theweekends. When we trace back into the his-tory of the school we see that it has alwaysbeen a community school, but over the yearsit has drifted from that andwewant to bringit back by establishing different partner-ships and getting people involved for the bet-ter of the school.”Ward councillor Matthew Kempthorne
says the only way to get things done isthrough partnerships.“Withworking together everything is pos-
sible. We are so happy that businesses canpartner and help the children. Children areour future – if we invest in them they willbe better citizens. This timeweare investingthrough a good soccer pitch.”V Readers who want to help the school can contactFernie on 021 683 8523, 082 496 4889 or [email protected].

People are quick to complain. It’s human nature – whenyou’re not happy with something you speak up, say howyou feel, kick up a fuss until someone hears and doessomething about the problem.As recently demonstrated by university students
across the country, when you yell hard enough someoneis bound to hear and act. The students were victorious,yet now some say it’s not enough.The problem these days is that people have forgotten
the common courtesy of “Thank you”. Give them a fingerand they try to grab the whole arm, or worse, they throwit back because they wanted the pinkie, not the thumb.Often people complain about a crime-ridden alley, but
when someone takes action and closes it, those same peo-ple are unhappy because they can’t walk through it any-more. We constantly hear how long the waiting list forgovernment housing is. After years and years of waitinga family finally walks into their own home, but then it’snot good enough because it’s too small or located in thewrong area.And of course, roads . . . Everyone who owns a car has
had his fair share of traffic, but let the City dare startwithroadworks to improve the road and lessen congestion andyou hear the moaners start their engines. Or the com-plaints roll in when they put up another speed bump infront of a school.People too easily forget it is impossible tokeepeveryone
happy. The onesmaking the tough decisions about a solu-tion for a specific problem often have a much bigger pic-ture to consider too.Thehouseyouhavebeenwaiting for these last tenyears
may not be perfect or in the ideal location, but it’s yoursto decorate and cherish and share with whom you wish.The extra block we have to walk to catch a taxi or the
extra bump we have to break for in the road may be aninconvenience, but it could save a life.
‘Push-the-Pensioner Day’I would like to suggest that one day eachmonth is set aside and formally designa-ted “Push-the-Pensioner Day”. Myreasoning behind this is quite simpleand I am sure that everyone will agreewith me that the concept is quitebrilliant.As a pensioner myself, as well as
being a recovering cancer patient, Ibelieve that I’m eminently qualified totalk about this subject. Wherever elderlycitizens go these days they are constant-ly pushed, shoved and knocked out ofthe way by robust young people whoseem to be both bad tempered and in aterrible hurry.In a way I feel sorry for these young-
sters as they appear to be in a perpetualstate of desperation and aggression.Happiness and joy of life seem to havebeen lost in a fruitless search to satisfytheir egos. Although children may not
fall into this category, they have a morenovel way of offending the elderly: Theysimply refuse to acknowledge they existand cheerfully try and walk rightthrough them.If we nominated one day each month
as “Push-the-Pensioner Day” all assaultson pensioners would have to be confinedto this one day. This would leave therest of the month relatively safe forpensioners to venture onto the streetsand into malls without fear of beingknocked flying. Similarly, they wouldnot be taken by surprise as they wouldknow what to expect on these nominateddays and, preferably, elect to stay athome.Seriously though, it’s a sad indictment
on our society that the elderly andinfirm are treated with so little courtesy.

Homes must apply to be moreThe City of Cape Town is aware thatprivate properties are increasingly beingused for various activities, for exampleas small churches or places of worship,businesses and crèches.While these uses are welcomed,
property owners must ensure that theuse of their property is in line with thezoning of the premises and consent foralternative uses must be obtained.A property zoned Single Residential 1
allows for a dwelling house to be con-structed. It also allows for additionaluses such as home occupation, a bed-and-breakfast establishment (no morethan six paying guests and no more thanthree rooms for guests) and homechildcare (a small crèche of up to sixchildren).Owners of properties zoned for Single
Residential 1 purpose must be granted aconsent use or temporary departure ifthey do not comply with the limitationsfor additional uses or want to operate aplace of worship, small business (such asa house shop), guest house or crèche(with more than six children) or want tobuild a second dwelling on the property.
If they fail to do so they will be incontravention of the property’s zoningrights. The City of Cape Town’s munici-pal planning bylaw permits the City totake a variety of actions in respect of anunlawful land use.An owner may apply to rectify the
unlawful land use or building work, butwill be required to pay a penalty.Legal action is the absolute last resort.
Therefore, property owners are encour-aged to visit their local district planningoffice to verify whether the current useof the property complies with the zoningof the premises and, if not, what processthey need to follow in order to complywith legislation. The City’s inspectorswill help property owners with anyquestions they may have about zoningmatters and building applications.Complaints relating to possible contra-
ventions are to be submitted in writingto the City’s property enforcementsection at their local planning districtoffice.

My proposalmakes roadsafety senseWe often read or hear of the carnage onour highways and byways and it wouldseem our leaders in road managementare doing their best to keep the motoristand pedestrian safe.The other conclusion one has to come
to is that motorists still do not believespeed kills. All kinds of projects havebeen launched to keep motorists incheck, like the Arrive Alive campaign. Itruns into the tens of millions of randsthat these accidents are extracting fromthe government coffers.With this sad state of affairs one would
expect proposals to bring this roadcarnage to an end. Every avenue will bedissected, analysed, tested and thenimplemented if it makes road safetysense. This is going to be my one ofmany attempts to sell my project for freeto the powers that be.When I was operational commander I
took the initiative to have huge postersmade of crime prevention hints andstuck them to my police vehicles, whichmade my police vehicles talk to thepublic when they were driven or parked,and it worked.The law enforcement officers’ vehicles,
in conjunction with other city servicevehicles like your waste collectiontrucks, should have such posters withexamples of the contravention of theRoad Traffic Act, like drunken driving,skipping red robots, speeding, with thepenalties stuck with magnets to the doorsor sides of the vehicles. While they arebeing driven or parked they warnmotorists of the consequences of contra-vening road regulations.Also look at minibus taxis to have
these posters attached to their vehicles.These posters can have hard-hitting
facts on road traffic violations withpictures. It will be in the face of motor-ists and this should have a driverthinking twice about contravening therules of the road.

A few weeks ago Aayesha Kleinsmith’sdream of representing South Africa at theWorld Karate Federation Championshipsin Indonesia seemed impossible.Now, with the help of Play Sport4Life
(PS4L), that dream has come true.Aayesha is a first-year Sports Science
student at the University of the WesternCape and a junior nidan (second degreeblack belt) from Kensington.This is the third time she has been select-
ed to represent her country. Having strug-
gled to raise funds for the first tournamentand not being able to attend the second dueto financial strain, her mother, RukeyaKleinsmith, pleaded for financial help forher daughter’s trip. By organising fun-draising events they were able to cover aportion of the money needed, but had noidea where they would get the rest.PS4Lhas sponsored the remaining funds.
The non-profit organisation, which was es-tablished in Kensington last year, supportsAayesha because she represents women insport and could be an ambassador for theorganisation in promoting women in vari-ous sports.“PS4L is home-grown and we want to
work with athletes in the area who repre-sent what we feel is needed in Kensington,”
says Kyle Inglis, operations director atPS4L. “Wewant to establish a goodworkingrelationship with her, one that can stretchfar beyond financial.”Aayesha is now able to put her energy
and focus into her training to prepare forthe upcoming tournament. She aims to doher best and make her family, friends andcommunity proud. SouthAfrica hasn’twona medal at the championships since 1997and she hopes to be the one to change that.“I’m excited and nervous at the same
time,” she says. She hopes to be an inspira-tion to the youth in Kensington, especiallygirls, to never give up on their dreams.V For more information on Play Sport4Life contactNazlie Dollie on 071 386 6573 or [email protected] visit www.playsport4life.org.
