“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.

Arnold Bosman Commemorative Concert

Arnold Bosman Commemorative Concert
6 February 2010
Anglican Cathedral (St. Georges Street)
19:00

On 6 Febraury 2010, the UFS Department of Muisc will present a special memorial concert in honour of Arnold Bosman, renowned conductor and pianist. It is fitting to present this concert to commemmorate Arnold’s death 5 years ago on 4 February 2005 in Italy. During this occassion, Arnold’s father, dr. Willem Bosman, will donate his son’s musical inheritance to the UFS. Arnold, a former South African, has developed, especially during the last decade of his life, as a diverse and prominent musical figure and as both performer and conductor he made a significant contribution to musical performance and research in Italy.

This special concert aims to highlight his stature, contribution and to commemorate his legacy. Therefore it has been compiled in such a way as to fittingly elucidate Arnold’s musical preferences and activities.

The first half of the programme consist of solo compositions and songs where a replica of a fortepiano (one of Arnold’s favourite instruments) will be used. Musicians who will perform include Deirdré Blignaut (soprano), Nicol Viljoen (fortepiano & organ), John Reid Coulter (fortepiano), Human Coetzee (cello), Lance Phillip (tenor) and Willie Viljoen (countertenor). In the second half of the programme, the ever popular Fauré Requiem will be performed by the Ars Nova Consort under the leadership of Lance Phillip with organist Jan Beukes.
