Organised by the Grahamstown Foundation Arts' Education Department, over 900 Grade 11 learners are expected to attend what promises to be a memorable occasion.

Festival highlights this year include the production Rustlers, directed by Roy Sargeant and starring Diane Wilson, Dumisane Mbebe, Bo Peterson and Warren McAslen. It is currently running at the Artscape Theatre and is described as being a heart-warming piece, bubbling with wit and humour.

They also have Nongqawuse: The Truth Commission performed by the Community Arts Project of Cape Town which tells the story of Nongqawuse and the cattle killings of 1865 through the medium of physical theatre, Hip-Hop music and dance.

Alan Committie provides his unique brand of comedy with his show Titanic while Matthew Ribnick produces hilarious, whacky characters in his performance of The Chilli Boy.

Without further Adieu is the brilliant new show from The Remix Theatre Company, once again proving how successful integrated theatre can be.

In conjunction with the shows, delegates have the opportunity of learning new skills and developing their creativity in a range of interactive workshops.

They will also be entertained by the Theatresports team and the UCT Drama Department's performance lectures on King Lear and Dance with a Poor Man's Daughter.
