VRYDAG 29 NOVEMBER
Stellenbosch: Ilne Fourie is terug op die verhoog van die Drostdy-teater met ’n splinternuwe eenvrouvertoning, Verkleurvroutjie. In die prettige toneelstuk laat Fourie die gehoor kies wat hulle volgende wil sien of hoor. Sy spring moeiteloos tussen verskillende genres en laat die gehoor kies uit die sewe kleure van die reënboog – komedie, drama, uit die oudedoos, opera, skouspel, radiodrama, poësie. Dis dan wanneer die poppe begin dans, want Fourie verander dadelik van karakter na aanleiding van die gehoor se keuse van genre wat hul wil sien. Die vertoning begin om 20:15. Kaartjies kos R190 elk en kan deur Webtickets bespreek word. Geen kinders onder 13 word toegelaat nie.
