Dancing the Langarm

Those who’re old enough will remember David Kramer as the Volkswagen guy in the 1983 advert for the VW Microbus.

South African-born singer, songwriter, playwright and director David Kramer is most notable for his musicals about the Cape Coloured communities. David was born in Worcester although the Kramer family name (originally Karabelnik) was adopted by his grandfather who arrived in South Africa from Lithuania in 1899. His new musical Langarm is out now.
