“There once was a Velveteen Rabbit, and in the beginning, he was really splendid. He was fat and bunchy, as a Rabbit should be; and for at least an hour the Boy loved him”.

Hoe speelgoed regtig-egtig word is a brand-new theatre script from the pen of Karen Combrinck based on Margery Williams’ beloved tale of the Velveteen Rabbit.  The production tells the tale of a shy toy rabbit who wants nothing more than becoming real.  One day the toy rabbit ends up on a heap of Christmas gifts.  Along with the other toys, old and new, the velveteen rabbit goes on a journey of discovery during which he realizes that it is not what you can do or what you look like that matters, but that being loved by someone else makes you real. 

DeBeer Cloete (Bunnicula, Lyle the Crocodile and A monster under the bed) directs this production that showcases the talents of the second-year drama and theatre arts students. 

The production opens on Wednesday 19 September at the Rehearsal Room at the Scaena Theatre Complex on the UFS campus. 

Tickets are available through Computicket and are priced between R20 and R25. 

Showtimes are as follow:  19 - 21 September 11:00, 21 September 18:00 and 22 September 10:00 and 12:00.

"Hansel and Gretel" is a well-known fairy tale of German origin, recorded by the Brothers Grimm and published in 1812.  It has been adapted for the stage by JP du Plessis and translated by Peter Taljaard, Gerben Kamper and Marijda Kamper. 

Hansel and Gretel are the young children of a poor woodcutter. 

The woodcutter's second, abusive wife decides to take the children into the woods and leave them there to fend for themselves, so that she and her husband will not starve to death, because the children eat too much.

Deep in the forest Hansel and Gretel are threatened by a witch living in a house constructed of cake and candy.

Can the children outwit the nasty witch to save their lives? 

Filled with song and dance, “Hansel and Gretel” promises to be great entertainment for children aged between 5 and 10 and everybody with a child’s imagination.

Hansel and Gretel can’t wait to meet you all!!!!
