Internationally acclaimed, powerhouse vocalist and entertainer, Tonya Koenderman is at Reload for the first time with her renowned one-woman show, Born To Diva! on Saturday 6 September
Gauteng based, Tonya Koenderman promises a musical feast with serial thrillers and gorgeous, dazzling costumes. It takes some doing to emulate the likes of Tina Turner, Shirley Bassey, Miriam Makeba, Claire Johnston, Nina Simone, and Liza Minnelli amongst others, but Tonya does this with ease…plus her own personality and charm thrown into the mix.
In true diva style, Tonya adds her own saucy touch to evergreens: “Diamonds are forever”, “My Baby Just Cares for me”, “Pata Pata”, “Special Star”, “Simply the Best”, “Nutbush City Limits”, “Proud Mary”, “All That Jazz, and “New York New York”.
Tonya started her career fresh out of Wits drama school with Kevin Feather's cabaret, The Dooh Wah Girls in 1990, which ran for four years. Other shows under her belt are We 3, Juke is King, Jive to the Juke, and Wurlitzer, All of Woman and Shake Your Bootie, Growing Old Disgracefully all of which have performed to packed houses throughout South Africa.
Tonya performed in the look-alike, sound-alike show, Stars in your Eyes, impersonating one of her favourite artists, Liza Minnelli, which ran for two seasons at the Carousel. She has worked extensively for Sun International in numerous extravaganzas throughout South Africa.
Tonya had the great honour of being the only local artist to star in the Sun City sensation, Beyond Belief, which ran for 16 months at Sun City, where once again she paid tribute to the legendary Liza Minnelli.
Apart from dazzling Saudi Arabian “royalty”, she has performed in countries such as Australia, Italy, Mauritius, Seychelles, Ethiopia, and Morocco. Tonya has also worked extensively for the MSC Cruise liners
The show has had standing ovations and rave reviews across South Africa, including Johannesburg, Durban, Cape Town, Port Elizabeth and East London. The show has also been performed in Mauritius, Seychelles, and on the MSC Cruiseliners.
