(Marc Kay & Sarah Richard)
Nigel Greenstuff is
just an average, ordinary boy. He goes to a school, plays with his brothers and
friends, and loves to read. But Nigel has a secret... he only ever reads one
book. Over and over. The SAME book. But this is no ordinary book. It's a
magical tome that contains every single story ever told! And Nigel does love to
read his stories aloud, and share them with everyone. Everyone except his
next-door neighbour, Casey, that is! She's a snooping, stinky, silly girl, and
she's been trying to get her hands on Nigel's book for years... and this time,
she may finally get what she wants!
This December, join
Marc Kay and Sarah Richard in the roles of Nigel and Casey, performing in the
award-winning Actors Unemployed Company's amazing new show Thrice Upon A Time. As Nigel and Casey, they will perform three
fantastically fun-filled fairytales for the whole family: Three Billy Goats Gruff, Goldilocks and the Three Bears and The Three Little Pigs.
But what happens
when the stories start going wrong? The only way you'll find out is to join
them this December at the Rhumbelow Theatre in Umbilo!
The stories are all
told using a combination of reading, acting, voice-overs, music and shadow
puppetry. And when the show is done, youngsters can join the actors for a fun
workshop on shadow puppetry, and learn how to make their own and tell their
stories at home... however fantastical they may be!
Thrice Upon A Time runs from December 6 to 22 at 10h00 daily. Thursday
shows at 14h00. Tickets R60 and snacks and juices will be on sale. Rhumbelow
Durban is situated in Cunningham Avenue off Bartle Road in Umbilo.
