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.

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.

"Hansel and Gretel" is a well-known fairy tale of German origin, recorded by the Brothers Grimm and published in 1812.  It has been adapted for the stage by JP du Plessis and translated by Peter Taljaard, Gerben Kamper and Marijda Kamper. 

Hansel and Gretel are the young children of a poor woodcutter. 

The woodcutter's second, abusive wife decides to take the children into the woods and leave them there to fend for themselves, so that she and her husband will not starve to death, because the children eat too much.

Deep in the forest Hansel and Gretel are threatened by a witch living in a house constructed of cake and candy.

Can the children outwit the nasty witch to save their lives? 

Filled with song and dance, “Hansel and Gretel” promises to be great entertainment for children aged between 5 and 10 and everybody with a child’s imagination.

Hansel and Gretel can’t wait to meet you all!!!!
