“Man, ou Lettie Ingelbrê het baie gedoen hier in ons buurt … bak virrie kjerkbesaar, blomme insteek by die troues, waak by die siekes … alles …haar hanne ‘t vir niks ve’keerd gestaan nie … Maar kan ‘ie ou mens vir jou geskinner ‘t! Dis nou een swak wat die ou siel gehad ‘t wat sy nie ontslae van kan geraak ‘t nie. Dit ennie vrees virrie dood…” Ja, soos ’n bontspul vygies wat in ’n dorre Sandveldse landskap uitbars, so kleurryk is die mense wat hierdie streek aan ons land se Weskus hul tuiste noem. Sommige groots soos hul omgewing, of klein en dwaas soos mense ook maar is, soos onse Lettie Engelbrecht hierbo. Botha Enslin bring ’n keur van gewilde kontreistories, geskryf in die tipiese streekstaal wat handel oor ’n unieke wêreld en sy mense, na die verhoog toe in Die Dood van die Founmannetjie en ander Ferdinand Deist Weskusstories.

“Daar is Oompie Paul se Groot Nood¸ Die Pomporrelkonsert en Die Oorbesige prekkereer wat begin: “Kyk, ek weet nou nie of jy die storie ken vannie moles wat daar die keer innie hemel gewees ‘t toet Petrus die duiwel wel gedagvaar ‘t nie…”. Ons ontmoet ook vir Pensie, nurse Drientjie van Schalkwyk, Tanta Anna, sy met die wye tande en natuurlik Dirk Ligter, die nimlike hy…”, sê Botha, wat in die produksie lewe gee aan meer as 30 karakters. “Botha Enslin is ‘n meester van karakterisering”, sê regisseur Frans Swart. “Hierdie man kan net met ‘n draai en ‘n beweging vir jou die volgende karakter gee. Hy is ongelooflik talentvol.”

DIE RATKAS VAN ‘N KEUSE

Vir die eerste keer in die Kaap! Ná meer as 6 jaar se suksesvolle GESELS-aanbiedinge bring Nataniël hierdie vinnig-groeiende projek uiteindelik na die suide!

Leefstylpraatjie, Saterdag 22 November, Drostdyteater, Stellenbosch Soos elke vorige jaar, het GESELS 2025 ’n unieke tema: “Die Ratkas Van ’n Keuse”. (Op of af? Reg of verkeerd? Links of regs? Eet ek dit of los ek dit? Loop ek of bly ek?). Met die maak van elke keuse is daar ‘n masjien met ’n miljoen ratte wat sy werk moet doen. Van jou ingebore neigings tot jou opvoeding, omgewing, oortuigings, invloede en gesondheid, elkeen speel ’n rol in elke keuse wat gemaak word. Kyk hoe lyk ons wêreld! Die resultaat van keuses! Hoe ver strek die gevolge van ’n vinnige besluit? Is alles dan belangrik? Hoe ontspan ek ooit weer? Hierdie onderskatte daad word van alle kante bekyk met insiggewende, skreeusnaakse en verrassende ontdekkings. Met stories, deernis, vrae, antwoorde, vermaaklikheid, eerlikheid, persoonlike oortuiging en alle erns takel Nataniël weereens ’n yslike onderwerp.

Gehoorlede kan vrae vooraf in ’n houer plaas, Nataniël bespreek hierdie kwessies dan vanaf die verhoog, ’n hoogtepunt vir vele! Saterdag 22 November 2025 Drostdyteater, Sellenbosch 15:30 90 minute Geen kinders onder 14 Bespreek NOU! Kaalkopwinkel met boeke, keramiek, geskenke, kerse, musiek en kombuisolies in die foyer!
