Review: VER IN DIE WERELD KITTIE at The Blik
by Michelle B Lewis - July 29, 2024
VER IN DIE WERELD KITTIE is a compelling musical that not only entertains but also educates its audience about a lesser-known chapter of Afrikaans folk music history. It’s a poignant reminder of the often-overlooked contributions of individuals like Kittie Jaftha and Koos Heuningbek, whose cultural legacy lives on through their songs.

Review: WITNESS FOR THE PROSECUTION gives whodunnit twists and turns
by Faeron Wheeler - July 08, 2024
The story is full of all the classic stuff you'd expect from an Agatha Christie. Twists and turns, red herrings as to who the murderer is, characters clearly lying (but for what reason?!) and some very sharp dalogue. In this version of WITNESS FOR THE PROSECUTION, that dialogue was delivered beautifully. We had plenty of laughs throughout the play.
