Hierdie winter draai die Cape Town City Ballet dinge behoorlik op hul koppe met \u2019n vonkelende, komiese produksie van <strong><em>Orpheus in the Underworld<\/em><\/strong>. Van 12 tot 21 Junie 2026 verander die Kunstekaap Operahuis in \u2019n ryk van pure vermaak, skelms en 1920\u2019s-glans.<\/p>\n<p>Vergeet van die tradisionele, hartseer Griekse mite. In die hande van die gevierde Suid-Afrikaanse choreograaf Veronica Paeper, kry hierdie storie \u2019n heerlike, aweregse kinkel. Wanneer Eurydice saam met die aantreklike Pluto weghardloop, is Orpheus glad nie hartgebroke nie! Die gode besluit egter om in te meng, en wat volg is \u2019n uitgelate reis deur Olympus en Hades.<\/p>\n<p>Die produksie speel af in die stylvolle 1920\u2019s. Verbeel jou die betowerende 1920-glans, Mafia-intriges, swembad-streke en \u2019n dekadente nagklub in die Onderw\u00eareld. Die manjifieke dekor en kostuums is ontwerp deur Peter Cazalet, met moderne oudio-visuele effekte deur Kirsti Cumming.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_164993\" style=\"width: 410px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-164993\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-164993\" src=\"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/rooirose\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Hannah-and-Elvis-Nonjeke-in-Orpheus-foto-Lindsey-Appolis-400x600.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"600\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-164993\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Hannah en Elvis Nonjeke (Foto: Lindsey Appolis)<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Hannah Ward wissel die rol van Eurydice met die geselskap se hoofballerina, Kirst\u00e9l Paterson, en Isabella Blair af.

Die uitdaging, die storievertelling en die manier waarop beweging uitdrukking kan gee wat woorde nie kan nie, maak dit &#8216;n diep vervullende kunsvorm. Ek onthou nog hoe mal ek daaroor was om saam met my ballet-onderwyser aan iets te werk en die beloning van vooruitgang te voel, maak nie saak hoe klein nie. Die paar oomblikke wat ek op die verhoog gehad het, met die gehoor in donker lig, het amper soos &#8216;n ontsnapping gevoel \u2013 &#8216;n soort vryheid wat ek nog nie voorheen gevoel het nie.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<h4><strong><em>Orpheus in the Underworld<\/em><\/strong><strong> breek bietjie weg van die tradisionele ballet. Wat is vir jou as ballerina lekker aan hierdie aweregse storie?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Ek vind myself al hoe meer aangetrokke tot nie-tradisionele storieballetopvoerings. Ek is mal oor hoe slim <em>Orpheus in the Underworld<\/em> geskryf is. Veronica Paeper vertel die storie so duidelik deur die beweging en musiek. Die passies en musiek is s\u00f3 goed ge\u00efntegreer dat die storie baie natuurlik lewendig word, sodat ons as dansers niks ekstra daarop hoef af te dwing nie.<\/p>\n<p>Ek is ook mal oor die humor daarin. Dis baie snaaks, maar ook genuanseerd, en ek dink komedie kan eintlik baie moeilik wees om te doen, want dit kan nie te geforseer of oordoen voel nie. Om daardie balans te vind tussen teatraal wees en steeds outentiek voel, was baie interessant om te verken.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-4 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-4 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 100%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-4 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-4 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-4' class='gallery galleryid-164991 gallery-columns-1 gallery-size-medium'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/rooirose\/orpheus-is-geen-klassieke-ballet-nie\/orpheus-in-the-underworld-repitisies-foto-brenda-veldtman-4\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"379\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/rooirose\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Orpheus-in-the-Underworld-repitisies-foto-Brenda-Veldtman-4-379x600.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-4-165001\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-4-165001'>\n\t\t\t\t&#8216;Orpheus in the Underworld&#8217; se repetisies (Foto: Brenda Veldtman)\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Jy dans twee rolle in die ballet. Watter uitdagings bring dit vir jou as danser en wat geniet jy daaraan?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Die grootste uitdaging is dat albei rolle baie verskil van karakters wat ek voorheen gedoen het, so hulle stoot my beslis uit my gemaksone.<\/p>\n<p>Calliope is baie netjies en konserwatief en verteenwoordig die openbare mening, maar sy het ook hierdie komiese kant aan haar. Wat nogal misleidend is omtrent die rol, is hoe presies die voetwerk eintlik is, al kan die karakter soms los en moeiteloos voorkom.<\/p>\n<p>Eurydice is ook baie geanimeerd en ekspressief, veral rondom Pluto, en dit was nuut vir my. Ek is geneig om redelik teruggetrokke met &#8216;n nuwe karakter te begin. Dit neem tyd vir my om dit te internaliseer en vir die karakter om sin te begin maak langs die beweging en die dialoog wat ek in my kop skep. Sodra dit outentiek begin voel, geniet ek dit regtig om in \u2019n sterker karakter te ontwikkel. Die kostuums help ook so baie om albei tot lewe te bring.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Wat inspireer jou steeds in hierdie beroep?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Om te sien hoe beweging musiek tot lewe bring, te ontdek waartoe die menslike liggaam werklik in staat is, en die nimmereindigende strewe na verfyning.

Dis wat jou deur die moeilike dae sal dra. Iets wat ek later in my loopbaan geleer het, is die belangrikheid van kruisopleiding.

Dat jy \u2019n sekere lengte of bou moet wees om te slaag \u2013 ballet moet verskillende liggaamstipes vier. En ook die idee dat dit nie \u2019n \u201cregte\u201d werk is nie.
