Echo Staff Reports

Dolly Rathebe, whose 1949 film debut in “Jim Comes To Jo’burg’ launched the then-19-year-old as a South African cover girl, and, later, international icon, performs tomorrow night at the Reynolds Theater in the Bryan Center of Duke University.

The concert is a joint presentation by the university’s International Affairs, the Duke Institute of the Arts, and Rathebe’s friend and biographer Dr. Ingrid Byerly of Duke’s Department of Cultural Studies.

Tickets for the 8 p.m. concert are $25, $15 and $50 for special patrons.

Proceeds from the concert will be donated to the Red Cross Children’s hospital in Cape Town, South Africa.
