Staff, students and alumni win top honours at Vrystaat Arts Festival 2024


The UFS Department of Drama and Theatre Arts congratulates the various staff, students, and alumni who shone at the 2024 Vrystaat Arts Festival. Not only was the department represented in about 13 theatre productions, but you would be hard-pressed to find a venue where our students and alumni were not present. We are proud of the high number of Vryskitter nominations and awards received, which testify to the quality of work produced for the festival.
