Media Release

A dancing cat, a howling dog, and a vampire bunny. The perfect pet combination for any family. It is a dark and stormy night and Chester (the family cat) and Harold (the family dog) sit waiting for their owners to return home from the movies. Chester and Harold are more than just pets, they are good friends too. When the Monroes finally get home, they come bearing a surprise: they have found a bunny in the movie theatre. However, this is no ordinary rabbit … this is the extraordinary Bunnicula. When the family’s produce starts losing its juice, Chester thinks he knows what is causing the fantastic phenomenon. Bunnicula is a vampire! Or maybe Chester’s imagination is getting the better of him. Singing and dancing their way through this hilarious mystery, the furry friends find room in their hearts, and in their home, for one very unique bunny.

This unique musical Children’s theatre production is directed by DeBeer Cloete and features second-year Drama students in the South African premiere of Deborah and James Howe’s Bunnicula. The production runs from the 11th to the 14th op April at the Scaena Rehearsal Room on the UFS Campus and tickets are available through Computicket. The production is recommended for children 7 years and up and everyone young at heart.

Johnie (Thys Heydenrych) is a highly imaginative writer, but also very unsuccessful. In a bizarre argument he shoots his wife Joey (Ilne Fourie). A knock on the door forces him to get rid of the body and the cupboard becomes his only choice. O, Komdoom, Daar’s ‘n Kat in My Boom! is a fun, naughty comedy (farce). Johnie meets various characters, all in search of his story. At the end Joey appears to solve the very confusing situation.

O, Komdoom, daar’s ‘n kat in my boom! is directed by Thys Heydenrych who is currently a Junior Lecturer at the University of the Free State Drama Department. In 2008 he directed and acted in the comedy “Enige Iemand vir Ontbyt?” and in 2009 in “My Liewe Meneer Malan”. Ilne Fourie is known for her very successful one woman shows “Impi” and ”Impi 2”. These shows performed at very various festivals. This year she debuted with her new show “Next Costumer Please!” with full audiences. Laura-Maire Jansen wrote in the Volksblad 16 Feb 2010: “die staande toejuiging van die teatergangers beklemtoon die woorde ‘Is dit wettig? Nee, maar dis prettig. Hierdie frase sal elke teaterganger nog lank onthou. Dit is ‘n produksies wat geen teaterliefhebber moet misloop nie” This production is a must see!

O, Komdoom, daar’s ‘n kat in my boom! had full audiences in Feb 2010 at the Scanea Theatre on the UFS campus. The tong-in-the-cheek-name for this comedy is written by Peet van Rensburg and Wim Beukes.
