Thornton Wilder’s Ons Dorp portrays the story of a small town Grawehoek – the come-and-go of generations, the circle of life and, of course, love and death. The script – originally in English and set in America – is translated by Ulrich Stark. Stark’s version of script is set in the 1900s in South Africa. The play master (portrayed by Magda Schoeman/Aldiné van der Merwe) is, other than the rest of the characters, in conversation with the audience. This technique breaks the well-known fourth wall convention that the realism genre is known for. The audience would however be able to relate to the characters, seeing that the play is still of a realistic nature. This production is brought to the stage by the second year drama students from the University of the Free State and is directed by Dr Pieter Venter.
