“January, February, March, April...” It’s a jolly New Year’s Day at the Scaena Theatre in May month, held at the University of the Free State!

The “Klopse” are busy practicing for the Carnival taking place the next day, and all the action takes place in a small town called “Witbaai”. “Sollie”, is the group leader of the “Klopse”. “Apools-van-die Pêrel” an along with his best friend “Drommel-van-die-Pêrel” arrive in Witbaai to spy on the “Klopse”. Each of them individually has a twin brother, from which they were separated during a shipping accident, named “Apools-van-die-Kaap” and “Drommel-van-die-Kaap” (they form part of the “Klopse”). The two pair of twins gets mistaken for one another by the local residents. “Adriana” a toothless old woman, her virgin sister “Lucy”, “Jessie” a floosy or cheap girl, “Aikona” an ice-cream salesman from Johannesburg, his long-lost wife “Emily”, “Knippie”a Malay, “Kuite” a wizard, “Magriet” a “hippy-Klops”, along with the group of “Klopse” all form part of the fun! What a farce!

A mixture of mistaken identity, dramatic irony, love triangles and absolute CHAOS can be expected! The production shows great discretion with its inherent political tone. André P. Brink wanted the issue of Apartheid to be touched on a very suggestive manner with the goal to act as a humoristic figure in the play.

“Kinkels innie kabel” written by André P. Brink is a farce based on Shakespeare’s play “Comedy of Errors”. The play is performed by third year Drama students of the University, directed by Professor Nico Luwes. The performance will take place from 19 May to 21 May 2010. Tickets are available at Computicket.

Thanks to the excellent directing of Professor Nico Luwes, there is no need to drive all the way to Cape Town; we bring Cape Town to Bloemfontein!
