“Hier huil jy net twee keer” is die opvolg vertoning van die suksesvolle “Baby, as ek verby ry”. Die titel van die nuwe verhoogproduksie deur Dana Snyman en Klopjag kom uit die ou gesegde: “Hier huil jy net twee keer, die dag wat jy aankom en die dag wat jy weer moet wegry.” Dit is dan ook waaroor hierdie aanbieding gaan. Dit is saamgestel uit Dana se stories wat handel oor families en hul huishoudings, die mooi, die snaakse en die hartseer aspekte daarvan.
Die kombinasie van Dana se stories verstrengel met Klopjag se musiek pas soos ‘n handskoen. Die produksie gebruik nostalgie, humor en musiek met groot sukses om die prentjies vir die gehoor te skets. Dana se vertelstyl is selfs beter in lewende lywe as in sy boeke en dis werklik ‘n belewenis om die eerlike en opregte wyse waarop hy stories vertel, gekombineer met Klopjag wat op hul instrumente die onderliggende emosies en tema van elke storie met gemak uitbring, te ervaar.
“Baby, as ek verby ry” het vol sale regoor Suid-Afrika getrek en was een van die hoogtepunte tydens die WOORDFEES, KKNK, INNIBOS en AARDKLOP in 2010. Die opvolg “Hier huil jy net twee keer” beloof om, soos sy voorganger, aan die gehoor ‘n woord-en musiekervaring van die hoogste gehalte te bied.

Opstal Live took a big step in the direction of theatre shows when we welcomed well known SA actor and performer Frank Opperman to our estate. Frank delivered an excellent comedic performance as Wally Koekemoer, Club President of the Suidelikes Rugby Club in a show where he had the audience’s attention from start to finish. The tempo and emotion of the show was well planned and he played with plenty of clichès in the world of the Afrikaner boytjies and their game of rugby. Hidden away behind all the funny there were some messages and wisdom on life as expected by a play from the pen of Dana Snyman.
In addition to the performance all the guests, from as far as Somerset West and Cape Town, enjoyed a lovely 3 course meal prepared by Opstal chef Allouise Le Roux.
All in all, another memorable Opstal Live evening.
Die bekende akteur Frank Opperman is terug op die verhoog met ‘n splinternuwe eenmansstuk Rooikaart. Dit is geskryf deur Dana Snyman, wat ook die baie suksesvolle ”Die uwe Pottie Potgieter” geskryf het waarmee Opperman vir lank deur die land getoer het.
Na die sukses van “Die uwe Pottie Potgieter”, verras Opperman se vermoë jou weereens wanneer hy ‘n splinternuwe verhoogkarakter skep in die gedaante van “Wally Koekemoer”.
Die vertoning is skreeusnaaks en met Opperman se dinamiese vertolking, beloof dit om nog ‘n lekker aand by Opstal Live te wees!
Kaartjies is beskikbaar by die plaas teen R150 (ete ingesluit).

On the 21st of October Steve Hofmeyr landed in our beautiful valley to put on the biggest Opstal Live show to date. A sold out audience of 360 people showed up at the Eikesaal (where we held the event) for a very entertaining evening.
After everyone enjoyed a lovely dinner, Steve’s son, Armand Hofmeyr got the evening started with a couple of his songs. However, you could feel the anticipation amongst the audience for Steve to take to the stage and when he did everyone went mad. He did a range of songs from his newest CD release, Duisend & Een with some nice tunes done in collaboration with the boys from Affies Hoër in Pretoria. After that, Steve took the audience on a tour through memory lane with only his guitar – performing some of his famous first songs from the 80’s and also songs from great musicians like Bob Seger, Kris Kristofferson and of course Neil Daimond.
All in all – it was a very entertaining evening with good food, wine and music and it was evident in his performance that Steve Hofmeyr is one of SA’s biggest stars.
