ABSOLUTELY NUTS THE MELODRAMA : FROZEN

ABSOLUTELY NUTS: THE MELODRAMA – FROZEN The Melodrama Returns... and it’s NUTTIER than EVER! Port Elizabeth, South Africa – Port Elizabeth, get ready to go absolutely nuts! The cult comedy theatre phenomenon is back for its 4th outrageous year—and this time, it’s taking on a hilariously twisted version of the beloved fairytale, Frozen. From 16 – 18 October 2025, Absolutely Nuts: The Melodrama – Frozen will bring six nights of side-splitting chaos to Elements, Plot 74, Farm, 10 Wyndomayne Rd, Little Chelsea. What happens when Frozen collides with Saturday Night Live, improv comedy, adult humour, and an overly enthusiastic audience armed with nuts? A riotous, interactive theatre experience that has to be seen to be believed. Audience members don’t just sit back and watch the show—they become part of it. Throughout the evening the crowd is encouraged to throw nuts at the actors, play drinking games, sing along (badly or beautifully, it doesn’t matter), shout at the characters, and even dance in their seats or in the aisles as the absurdity unfolds. This is not a kids’ show. The production is packed with strong language, adult themes, and a wildly inappropriate spin on the characters you thought you knew from Frozen. It’s the fairytale as you’ve never seen it before—more like Frozen on a wild night out after way too many cocktails. Now in its 4th year, the Melodrama is more than just a comedy event—it’s also about giving back. All proceeds support MTR Smit Children’s Haven and Heart of the Father Foundation. A note from Tarryn Light, producer and founder of Tarryn Light Productions: “We brought back the Melodrama as a way to give back to the community each year, and we’re so proud to keep this tradition going. Bring your colleagues for the special Corporate Evening on Thursday, 16 October—perfect for year-end functions, ladies’ nights, guys’ nights, or simply a night away from the kids. YOU can laugh, let loose, and give back while doing it.” Tickets are selling fast, with tables of 10 available at R2000 and general admission at R220, which includes a cup of nuts for throwing. Bookings can be made through Charlotte on 082 578 0358 or online at quicket.co.za. For those planning to enjoy the evening to the fullest, shuttle services can be arranged on enquiry. The organisers encourage guests to “Arrive Alive” and remind everyone: don’t drink and drive. Performances take place at Elements, Plot 74, Farm, 10 Wyndomayne Rd, Little Chelsea from 16–18 October 2025. With limited seats available and previous shows selling out quickly, audiences are encouraged to book early and gather their loudest, rowdiest crew for the most fun they can have in a theatre with a bag of peanuts.
