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.

FSSO Symphony concert - Soloist: Zanta Hofmeyr (Violin)

FSSO Symphony concert
Thursday 22 October 2009
Odeion
19:30

Soloist: Zanta Hofmeyr (Violin)
Conductor: Conrad van Alphen

The internationally acclaimed conductor Conrad van Alphen will conduct the Free State Symphony Orchestra for the final symphony concert of this year in the Odeion on 22 October. To commemorate Felix Mendelssohn’s 200th anniversary, the FSSO has included works by this famous composer in all the programmes. Violinist Zanta Hofmeyr will be the soloist in one of his most popular works: the Violin Concerto in E minor at this concert. The rest of the programme will consist of Rossini’s La Cenerentola Overture and Mozart’s Symphony No. 41 (“Jupiter”).

Conrad van Alphen is the chief conductor of the Rotterdam Chamber Orchestra and much in demand by other orchestras throughout the world. He often conducts orchestras in the Netherlands, England, Germany, Bulgaria, Russia, Slovenia, Poland, China and Mexico.

Zanta Hoefmeyr is one of our country’s leading violinists. Her recordings include "Zanta Hofmeyr plays Arioso" with organist Wim Viljoen and "Romantic Violin" with pianist Malcolm Nay. Zanta includes a lot of chamber music in her concert schedule. As a member of the Musaion Piano Trio, she toured extensively in South Africa and the Netherlands in 2004.
In 2004 she was awarded a Rapport/City Press "Woman of the Year" award and in 2005 the ATKV "Afrikoon" award.

Zanta loves roses and was particularly honoured when Ludwig Tassner presented her with a new "Zanta Hofmeyr" rose in 2003.
