The British play Noises Off is bound to have you in stitches. Written by Michael Frayn, Noises Off can be considered a farce within a comedy and gives an inside look at all the antics of the theatre: the ups, downs, backstabbing, and relationships that form while a play is being produced and performed.

Noises Off follow a group of actors preparing for a cringe-worthy production called “Nothing-On.” What follows is on-stage misdirection, misunderstandings, doors that will not work, and props that aren’t there. Theatregoers are promised a glimpse of what happens backstage as the stage will literally turn. The actor’s best and worst sides are displayed, revealing their mysteries of trying to keep track of their newspapers, plants, lovers, missing cast members and a few plates of Sardines.

Noises Off will be featuring third-year students of the Department of Drama and Theatre Arts of the University of the Free State. Directed by Thys Heydenrych. It will be performed from 26 to 29 September 2018 at the Wynand Mouton Theatre, UFS campus, at 19:30. Tickets are available at Computicket.

This production is appreciated by an audience of age 15 and over because of a more … grown-up storyline.

The production is made possible with the support from Creative Kilowatt and Iewers Nice.

Following in the footsteps of the highly successful “Twist in the Tale” and “The Grinch”, the dept. Drama and Theatre Arts once again presents a delightful children’s word production which transports the young audience to the animal park where they are introduced to animals big and small. 

This time, the works of Roald Dahl and Phillip de Vos are used in conjunction with music and dance to transport young and old to the magical kingdom of the animals.  Porcupine, frogs and even flies and a zebra or two come to the fore in this bi-lingual production.  The actors seldom get a chance to sit still and if they do, it is only to prepare for the next surprise around the corner.

“Wilder than the Animal Park” will be showing from the 20th of March through to the 25th at the Scaena Theatre’s Rehearsal Room.  Bookings can be done through Computicket. Tickets are R 20.00 per person and R 15.00 for block bookings of 10 or more people.
