The SA group were singing their 1979 single, 'Halo My Baby', to a packed audience when loadshedding struck the theatre.
According to SowetanLive, the show was forced into a 45-minute pause. However, when the lights eventually came back on, the group continued their performance.
This was not the first time loadshedding has hit a live performance. Remember this rugby game in Mbombela?
