FRANK ‘N STYNE (article first published : 2008-05-19)

The Holy Family College is to present the musical parody Frank ‘n Styne from May 22 to 24.

Written by Larry Hillhouse with music by C Michael Perry, this is the first time this musical has been performed in South Africa (not to be confused with the three-hander Frank ‘n Stein which featured David Dennis, Anthony Stonier and Ellis Pearson). Frank ‘n Styne will be directed by Farla Ribbonaar and performed by a talented cast of 20.

Franklin Kenneth Styne inherits an old castle from a distant relative (Frankie N Styne). Upon arriving, he finds that he also inherited a Styne Castle staff! A hunchback experimenter, talking portraits, a cook and a maid as well as a local constable and his beautiful niece. After finding the Log of Frankenstein this causes hilarious consequences! The musical contains such toe-tapping numbers as A – Mazing me, Castles Are So Hard To Dust and It’s Alive!

Frank ‘n Styne runs at Holy Family College from May 22 to 24. Tickets R25 per person. There will be a picnic theatre performance on May 24 when tickets are R30.

There will be a special schools performance on May 22 at 11h00 at R10 per learner (book early to avoid disappointment). Contact 031 205 5083 for bookings.
