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 streets of France are under water, but that’s not stopping Parisians to go about their everyday lives. Emilio, a peace loving film operator, and his inventor friend Raimund, find themselves amidst inadvertent mischief when they break into the professor’s lab and unknowingly let a monster loose to roam the country’s wet streets.

Emilio and Raimund set about finding the monster they created. Singer Lucette finds the monster, Faramound, in an alley next to her apartment and discovers that this is a monster with a loving heart and a hidden talent.

The despicable mayor, Millard, will do anything in his power to protect the residents of Paris, as long as it blows his trumpet. However, Emilio, Raimund and Lucette contrive to protect Faramound from the mean Millard.

’n Vlooi in Frankryk’ tells the story of a misunderstood monster named Faramound and his journey to find friendship and acceptance. Come to ‘’n Vlooi in Frankryk’  and come sing along with Lucette in her restaurant.
