A cross between Lily Savage, Dame Edna Everage and Rory Bremner, Beauty brings her sharp mind, and even sharper tongue, to a post-election London with a brand new show that sees the British join the ranks of her satirical targets alongside South African politicians, international soccer stars, and Robert Mugabe. The rise of the extraordinary character of Beauty Ramampelepele has been meteoric. She is best known for her stage show “Beauty and the BEE” as well as her scathing satirical revue on both Jacaranda FM and East Coast Radio, both stations with well over 1.5 million listeners nationwide. Her shows have had sell out successes in Johannesburg, Durban, Cape Town, Pretoria, Harare, Gaborone and elsewhere. She has shared the stage with Piter Dirk Uys’s Evita and is fast becoming a leading South African personality as Africa’s Dame Edna Everage. Ben Voss and his outrageous alter-ego were spotted by Oval House Theatre at the Harare International Festival of the Arts in 2009. Shocking audiences with an audacious eulogy to Robert Mugabe, Voss also courted controversy with his statement that “Mugabe is like a floater in the toilet. You keep flushing and flushing, but he keeps on coming back”. Oval House Theatre commissioned Voss to write a new show for Beauty in the lead up to the World Cup in South Africa, and Bend it Like Beauty has its world premiere at Oval House before returning to South Africa in June. Tart tongued and outrageous, Beauty has her own morning show on South Africa’s Jacaranda FM and her controversial public appearances have courted incited heated debate throughout southern Africa.
