POPPIE AT UCT ARENA THEATRE
17 March 2006 - 25 March 2006

In 1978, Tafelberg Publishers published Die Swerfjare van Poppie Nongena written by Elsa Joubert. It was later adapted for the stage by Sandra Kotze. Through Poppie's eyes we journey into her and her family's nightmare experiences during the horrific political turmoil of South Africa in the 1970's.Sandra Temmingh, director of this UCT Drama Department Production says; "For our students this piece of theatre is very close to their hearts. All of them have a 'Poppie' in their families - a woman who, for the survival and education of her children, would struggle and fight with all her worth. The talented young actors through their research into the play, found a new sense of respect for their parents and grandparents as they discovered the horrors of the implications of the terrible pass laws in place in the 70's".

ASWOESTERTJIE – ‘N PANTOMINI (SONDAE)
19 March 2006 - 26 March 2006

19 en 26 Maart Gaerin Hauptfleisch se stuk Aswoestertjie – ‘n Pantomini is op publieke aandrang nog steeds by die Klein Libertas Teater op Stellenbosch te sien! (Rolverdeling: Leon Kruger, Floyed de Vaal, Frieda van den Heever en Stephanie Hough) In hierdie produksie is die bekende sprokie van Aspoestertjie verwerk tot ‘n pantomime, maar die geselskap is gebukkend onder erge finansiële druk en moet al hul vernuf inspan om effekte en skouspel te skep soos ‘n regte pantomime betaam. Alhoewel ‘n paar afwesige akteurs die skouspel reduseer tot ‘n pantomini eerder as ‘n pantomime, laat die geselskap hulle nie deur sulke detail van stryk bring nie en daar word nie net gek geskeer met die oorspronklike sprokie nie, maar visuele grappe en die akteurs se geswoeg om voor te bly met spesiale effekte, laat die gehoor skaterlag.

JODY ABRAHAMS IN ‘IS JA!’
21 March 2006 - 31 March 2006

Jody Abrahams’s one-man show ‘Is Ja!’ is back in Cape Town and you can catch it at Obz Café until the 31st at 8pm. Is Ja! is a roller-coaster ride that uses music and song to tell the sometimes sad, often hilarious, yet always truthful account of Abrahams’ life thus far. In his quest to illustrate the triumphs as well as the heartaches he encountered during his career’s rapid ascendancy, Abrahams takes on the personas of other characters to share his intensely personal story. Written by the talented Johannesburg playwright, Stephen Simm, ‘Is Ja! gives audiences insight into the sometimes bizarre industry called showbiz and allows Abrahams to express his versatility both as an actor and singer. In this run, Abrahams uses more music and a refined musical score to illustrate his story. This ranges from local musical hits to traditional Cape-Malay Medleys. Swing to Afrikaanse liedjies. Rock to Broadway classics. And pop to hip-hop. Abrahams’ own compositions are also featured in the musical score.

James Cuningham and Helen Iskander (Fresco Theatre) wield their mastery of directing to create a new physical adventure, delving into the modern day world of cinema and film, set in the olden day world of traditions and small towns. Using the device of two railway workers who tell the tale of De Wet’s Dream, they are making social commentary on a generation of lost souls looking for a better life in the world of movies. De Wet’s Dream is a timeless story of dreams, love and brotherhood. It poses questions such as, How far will you go to follow your imagination? When does a dream become a reality and at what expense?
