“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.

FSSO Symphony concert - Soloist: Zanta Hofmeyr (Violin)

FSSO Symphony concert
Thursday 22 October 2009

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.
