Secondary School Production Tours The IST Campus…
On The Razzle by Tom Stoppard is a fast-paced comedy about the adventures of two mischievous
shop assistants, Christopher and Weinberl (played by Billie Rose Turner and Jameel Bharmal) who
get more than they bargain for when they rush off to the city in search of a good time. Their
employer Zangler (Joao Pedro Badiani Gibier de Souza) is the rich and self-satisfied owner of a
provincial grocery shop, or “high class provisions emporium” as he prefers to call it. Zangler has
been flirting with fortune, hoping to expand his markets by making a simultaneously romantic and
profitable alliance with the owner of a city fashion boutique, Madame Knorr (Susan Akwera). At
the same time, he is struggling to keep his niece Marie (Katie Walters) away from her own
romantic liaison with her young lover Sonders (Ntando Mndawe).
With some misgivings, Zangler leaves his shop in the charge of his two bumbling shop assistants
with the questionable work ethic in order to wine and dine his fashionable fiancée Madame Knorr.
Christopher and Weinberl promptly shut up shop and follow Zangler into the city for a piece of the
action - so the fun and the confusion begin. As they dodge Zangler through the city in search of
adventure, Christopher and Weinberl find themselves in some hilariously sticky situations, and
need to use all their wit and charm to find their way out again!
Peopled with larger than life, outrageously funny characters exchanging dialogue that crackles
with wit and double entendre (oh, and the odd awful joke…) the sparks soon fly as everybody
seeks to cover their tracks and keep out of trouble.
This year, our talented IST performers are exploring a new style of open air performance called
promenade (or “walk around”) theatre. This means the different scenes in the play will be
performed in different parts of the IST campus while the audience moves from one location to the
other, led by the players, to watch the different scenes. Part of the surprise is that the audience
does not know beforehand where they will be led to next…
Go On The Razzle at IST as you literally follow the characters around the IST campus (make that
the city of Vienna) in wild pursuit of adventure!
Performances on Wednesday, November 26 th to Friday, November 29 th at 5pm.
TICKETS ON SALE SOON AT THE SECONDARY SCHOOL OFFICE….
