Goldilocks And The Three Bears Join The Johannesburg Zoo’s Teddy Bears Picnic

Johannesburg, October 5, 2005

The cast from GOLDILOCKS AND THE THREE BEARS will join the Johannesburg Zoo’s TEDDY BEARS PICNIC on Saturday 15 October.

The event will be held at the Zoo’s Bandstand from 4pm to 8pm. After 4pm the entrance fee is R13 for both adults and children.

GOLDILOCKS AND THE THREE BEARS stars Tobie Cronjé as Dame Gertie Grosbolletijie, Marc Lottering as villain Malicio Malgat, world champion boxer Brian Mitchell as the Ringmaster, Carlo McFarlane as Billy the Circus Boy and Natasha Staples as Goldilocks. The show runs on the Civic’s Nelson Mandela Theatre stage from November 2nd to December 31st 2005.

“The Johannesburg Zoo is a sister company to The Johannesburg Civic Theatre within the City of Jo’burg,” says theatre CEO, Bernard Jay. “The Zoo has new bears to show off. We have bears getting ready for the panto season. So it just seemed to make sense to throw it all together into one big Teddy Bears Picnic at the Zoo. I hope the public will have fun - and come to see our pantomime later!”

There will also be bear trails to the different bear enclosures at the Zoo and everyone can follow those trails to see the bears.
