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.

Doortjie is an exciting new children’s theatre production written by Ilne Fourie. The production brings to life the oerteltjies, forest-dwelling creatures named Doortjie, Driekie and Doppies who live in a forest between somewhere and nowhere. Spinnelina and her two sidekicks Afval and Stinktoon find great pleasure in causing chaos in the lives of the oertels. Luckily Koning Woeste Baard is there to maintain law and order in the story. Add a tempting and teasing twins to the mix and Doortjie promises to be a fun children’s adventure with live music and original songs. Bring the whole family to discover the adventures of Doortjie and the other oertels.

This second year production directed by Pieter Venter will take place from 06 to 11 September in the Rep Theatre (Scaena complex). Times of the production vary and booking can be done trough Computicket. For group bookings please contact Thys Heydenrych at 051 4013390 or by email, heydenrychm@ufs.ac.za
