Making its return to The Drama Factory stage is The Emperor’s New Clothes featuring actors Henu Badenhorst and Jessie Diepeveen. Audiences have been bowled over by this fresh take on a well-loved tale by Hans Christian Andersen. With a distinctly South African flavour, Badenhorst and Diepeveen take audiences on a journey behind the scenes at the emperor’s palace. His majesty is a vain man, obsessed with his looks and living a great life, and he doesn’t care too much about his subjects. Along comes Charlotte who decides to expose him for the world to see. Can she convince him she is making him a magical cloak, which is visible only to clever people? To find out, come and join in the family fun at 11:00 on Friday 15 and Saturday 16 December.
