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.

Urban Safari: Art in public space - Artist talk by Alex Rinsler
Alex Rinsler is a public artist based in Manchester UK. He has exhibited nationally and internationally, representing the UK with Urban Fox at the Jing'an International Sculpture Project in Shanghai, 2014. He started the Giant's Foundry in the UK as a place for people to make magical projects that can inhabit city spaces, and bring a touch of the wild to our urban lives. In Manchester he has just produced the opening for HOME, a multi-disciplinary arts centre with five cinemas, two theatres and art gallery. He believes that big and colourful things can give us permission to think differently about the cities we live in, create new imagery and new identities, and ultimately offer a chance for us to live together better.

Rinsler is in Bloemfontein as part of the Programme for Innovation in Artform Development (PIAD), an initiative of the Vrystaat Kunstefees and the University of the Free State, to explore what might be possible in Bloemfontein in the years to come. Join him at this artist talk to hear more about the processes behind his work and to share your ideas.
