Masque children put on classic

People’s Post False Bay

September 16, 2025

The young actors at the historic Muizenberg Masque Theatre are looking forward to putting their own unique twist on a classic play this month.

- KEANAN HARMSE

The Masque Theatre's volunteers are attempting to recapture the magic of the famous Lewis Caroll novel, Alice in Wonderland with Down The Rabbit Hole on Friday 10 and Saturday 11 October.

The play will be showcased by the theatre's very own Youth Theatre Club and features an all children cast.

The theatre is a registered nonprofit organisation (NPO). It was established in 1959 by local attorney Bertie Stern. It's a rehearsal space for amateur enthusiasts and seasoned professionals to practise their craft and sharpen their acting chops. The theatre established a youth club to help young people aged between eight to 18, to learn theatre skills, build confidence, ignite creativity and encourage self-expression. The club also offers monthly hangouts, optional weekly drama classes and news about children’s shows happening in Cape Town.

Down The Rabbit Hole will mark the youth club's very first production.

People's Post spoke with some of the young cast members who are tackling this year's production.

Casey-Ann Kruger (14) hails from Fish Hoek and says she had no prior interest in acting and the dramatic arts at all.
