The Bald Diva

A typical English family: a typical English husband; a typical English wife, and a typical English home – except for the grandfather clock that strikes any number of times whenever it feels like it! How odd! And why are all the family friends named Bobby Watson?

Not much makes sense in Eugene Ionesco’s acclaimed play, The Bald Diva, but that’s half the fun. A French maid, a fireman and two very confused dinner guests all turn a “typical” English evening into an experience that no-one is likely to forget soon.

The Bald Diva is an hour-long romp through the absurdity of language, English tradition and strained marital relationships. Directed by Dion van Niekerk, and starring a bunch of highly talented students, this classic masterpiece is not to be missed!

The Bald Diva will be playing at the University of the Free State’s Scaena theatre from the 24th to the 26th May at 19:30pm. Tickets are available at Computicket.

The world can be a lonely place – especially when the ones you care for have gone off in other directions. But every now and then you meet someone who, just for a brief moment in time, reminds you what it’s like to have fun again.

Tok Tok is a ground-breaking theatre production that has no spoken language in it, making the show accessible to spectators from ANY language group. And the story is a universal one that will appeal to old and young alike, making Tok Tok perfect entertainment for the whole family!

Tok Tok stars Charl Henning and Erick Strydom as two strange but loveable characters who happen to find themselves in the same place at the same time. Although suspicious of each other at first, they soon discover that the things they have in common are far more important than the things that make them different.

Tok Tok, directed by Dion van Niekerk, won the award for Best Vrynge Debut Production at this year’s Vrystaat Kunstefees.

There will be four performances of Tok Tok at the University of the Free State’s Scaena Theatre. For more information, see www.facebook.com/TOKTOKplay.
