“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.

Celebrating the 200th anniversary of Robert Schumann’s birth, the FSSO will perform two works by the composer: the popular Piano Concerto in A minor and the Symphony No. 1 (“Spring”) at the launch concert of the 11th Odeion Musik Fest. This year’s fest is dedicated to the music of Handel and Schumann.

Internationally acclaimed conductor Conrad van Alphen will be on the podium. As artistic director and chief conductor of Sinfonia Rotterdam he has moulded this orchestra to one of the best orchestras in The Netherlands who host their own concert series in Rotterdam.  Conrad van Alphen is a popular guest conductor of various orchestras nationally and internationally.  He regularly conducts orchestras in The Netherlands, England, Germany, Bulgaria, Russia, Slovenia, Poland, South Africa, China and Mexico.

The soloist in die piano concerto will be Albie van Schalkwyk who will return to the Odeion stage for the first time since he moved from Bloemfontein to Cape Town at the beginning of last year. Van Schalkwyk, who was on the staff of the Department of Music of the UF for 12 years, is now professor of piano at the College of Music in Cape Town.

The programme will open with movements from the Second Suite from Handel’s Water Muisc.
