Musical direction was by Leo Quayle and [[Geoffrey Sutherland]] was the choreographer. [[Lawrence Folley was cast as Strauss senior with [[Michael renier]] as his son. [[Jean Fenn]], who had played the role in America, was brought out for the role as Helen. A revival of this production opened at the [[Civic Theatre]], Johannesburg on 11 November 1976.

Jean Fenn once again came out to star opposite Lawrence Folley, with Sharon Rostorf, Barry Coleman and Carina Cronjé. Directed by [[David Matheson]] and choreographed by [[Geoffrey Sutherlan]], the season opened at the [[State Theatre]] in November.
