Johnie (Thys Heydenrych) is a highly imaginative writer, but also very unsuccessful. In a bizarre argument he shoots his wife Joey (Ilne Fourie). A knock on the door forces him to get rid of the body and the cupboard becomes his only choice. O, Komdoom, Daar’s ‘n Kat in My Boom! is a fun, naughty comedy (farce). Johnie meets various characters, all in search of his story. At the end Joey appears to solve the very confusing situation.

O, Komdoom, daar’s ‘n kat in my boom! is directed by Thys Heydenrych who is currently a Junior Lecturer at the University of the Free State Drama Department. In 2008 he directed and acted in the comedy “Enige Iemand vir Ontbyt?” and in 2009 in “My Liewe Meneer Malan”. Ilne Fourie is known for her very successful one woman shows “Impi” and ”Impi 2”. These shows performed at very various festivals. This year she debuted with her new show “Next Costumer Please!” with full audiences. Laura-Maire Jansen wrote in the Volksblad 16 Feb 2010: “die staande toejuiging van die teatergangers beklemtoon die woorde ‘Is dit wettig? Nee, maar dis prettig. Hierdie frase sal elke teaterganger nog lank onthou. Dit is ‘n produksies wat geen teaterliefhebber moet misloop nie” This production is a must see!

O, Komdoom, daar’s ‘n kat in my boom! had full audiences in Feb 2010 at the Scanea Theatre on the UFS campus. The tong-in-the-cheek-name for this comedy is written by Peet van Rensburg and Wim Beukes.
