Evita Bezuidenhout is now 89, always ten years older than her imposter. She has been in the public domain since 1981 when she, as South African Ambassador to Bapetikosweti, caught the public’s ear and eye. She has experienced the dramas of the National Party’s chalk becoming the ANC’s cheese. Still in the GNU kitchen of Luthuli House, Tannie Evita usually keeps her opinions carefully to herself. However she is thrilled to be part of this year’s Voorkamerfest and for the first time will share her life with the audience in a unique Q&A session. Evita at 89 will prove once again that she can bring needed humour to our present democratic ups and downs.
