James Marais and Monique Cassells have become well-known for their “oldies” music tribute shows since they began performing together in 2009, and they are bringing their show, “A Trip Down Memory Lane”, back to café Roux! The show features songs by the legends you know and love from the 1950s, ‘60s, ‘70s and ‘80s, such as Elvis Presley, the Beatles, Cliff Richard, the Platters, Cher and Creedence Clearwater Revival, as well as the likes of Marilyn Monroe, Roy Orbison, ABBA and Queen. The show is a mini-theatrical experience, featuring the dynamic vocal and visual performances of James and Monique, alternating as a duo and individual performers, who also do multiple costume changes throughout.
James is the no. 1 Elvis Presley tribute artist in the country, and has appeared on television several times, including appearances on SABC 2’s game shows, “Noot Vir Noot” and “Musiek Roulette”, as well as Kyknet’s “Jou Show”, presented by Emo Adams. James performs a show-stopping Elvis tribute in this show, and also pays tribute to many other legends such as Cliff Richard and Roy Orbison.
Monique is a very accomplished vocalist, having performed many different genres of music over the years, including rock ‘n roll, rock, pop, country, blues, ballads and even light classical. She made her television debut on SABC 2’s “Musiek Roulette” in May 2018. Monique has dazzled many an audience with her renditions of timeless songs such as The Righteous Brothers’ “Unchained Melody”, and she pays full-costumed tributes to both Marilyn Monroe and Cher in this show.
James and Monique will also perform some exciting duets of legendary songs in their unique style. This dynamic duo was raised on the music by the legends to which they are paying tribute, and they perform with the kind of passion, enthusiasm and authenticity that can only come from a deep love of these legends and their music.
“A Trip Down Memory Lane” provides the kind of fun, colourful and entertaining show that audiences have come to expect from James and Monique. The show will leave you with a smile on your face and a song in your heart by the end!
