LitNet | STAND: Theatre review of Monsters (version 2)

Ignus Rademeyer Slypskole 2023-11-21

LitNet | STAND: Theatre review of Ijoloba: The prophecy (version 2)

Jane Mpholo Slypskole 2023-11-21

The cast moved the story from one outdoor location to the next, incorporating trees, grass and stones into the narrative." | This review was revised and updated by the participant. This is the second version of this review, which forms part of the LitNet | STAND theatre review workshop.

LitNet | STAND: Theatre review of Around the fire (version 2)

Kwanele Nyembe Slypskole 2023-11-21

"The production does not only contribute to case studies in the development of the choreopoem as a dramatic style of African storytelling for post-apartheid South Africa, but also serves as a social agent that holds a mirror to society, challenging the audience to question their role in the marginalisation of women." | This review was revised and updated by the participant. This is the second version of this review, which forms part of the LitNet | STAND theatre review workshop.

Johan van der Merwe Poësie 2023-11-16

soos die God van die Bybel
wat nie die riet sal breek
of die lamp se pit sal uitblus nie"

Nini Bennett-Moll Fiksiekompetisies 2023-11-09

"Ek gaan alle vlees met lewensasem in laat wegsterwe op die planeet, maar Ek gaan julle begenadig en uitspaar. Bou ’n vuurpyl volgens my voorskrifte: Ek sal my sagtewareprogram, Omega, aktiveer en jou van alle inligting voorsien. Die kodenaam is #PeterSchilling."

Die laaste diamant | Wetenskapfiksiekompetisie

Madeleine Venter Fiksiekompetisies 2023-11-09

"Hulle sal sy lewe red. Dis in hulle DNS in verweef – saam met al die tegnologiese wonders en supergene wat hulle so te sê onsterflik maak. Die rede vir hulle bestaan is om die mensdom van totale uitwissing te red. Of altans, so word daar gesê."

Onder die hoesstroop

die dood in remissie."

Jonk is

ongeskonde
soos maanlig
soos ’n kind"

As gister so uitspoel

"toe ons verlore was
op die oop rowwe see
in ’n baie klein bakkie
wat gelek het met een riem"

Die grootste skrik

Christo Meyer Poësie 2023-11-09

"Ek het aandagtig geluister
hoe hy sy hart uitstort
In ’n stadium het ek
so kwaad geword ..."
