Trust calling for new scripts
The Imbewu Trust is calling for applications
for their third SCrIBE Scriptwriting Competition, with a number of prizes available this
year.
Entries open on 1 March, closing date for
applications is 31 July and the top five
scripts will be selected for a week-long staged reading in October, with the opportunity for discussion and feedback from the public and members of the theatre industry.
The winning script will be produced by a
professional creative team for a run at a Cape Town theatre in 2015. A second winner
will have the chance to further workshop his
or her play, with a third award of the Scribblers Dream, a financial prize to enable a
writer to work alongside a mentor to develop
his or her script.
Woensdag, 26 Februarie 2014
The panel of SCrIBE judges comprises a
group of seasoned theatre practitioners. For
SCrIBE 2014, Imbewu is looking for new
works of outstanding quality, original content and representing the range of the South
African theatre landscape. The scripts
should be in English, no longer than 40 pages
or 80 minutes, with no more than five cast
members. The Imbewu Trust’s other initiatives include the Imbewu Showcase in New
York, USA. Started in 2012, when Imbewu
presented Neil Coppen’s Tin Bucket Drum to
great acclaim, this project aims to create dialogue between US practitioners and Imbewu, through cultural exchange.
V Entries for the SCrIBE Scriptwriting Competition
open on 1 March. For details visit www.imbewu­

It was from wanting to bring her overseas
convention experiences home that Manuela
Gray, of Wildfire Tattoos, decided to start
the Cape Tattoo Expo.
“The idea came about from having travelled to all the conventions overseas, and wanting to bring that home,” Manuela says.
“There was no platform to promote our industry at that level at all,” she goes on, adding: “So after meeting a lot of awesome tattooers around the world and convincing
them to come to Cape Town, the first International Cape Town convention was born.”
Now in its sixth year, the festival that
showcases all aspects of tattoo culture has
become a staple on local calendars.
This year’s Cape Tattoo Expo will run
from 28 February to 2 March 2014 at Cape
Town City Hall. Apart from the local and international tattoo artists who will be showcasing their work, attendees can also look
forward to a “Victorian Oddities” themed
art exhibition and live entertainment on the
Saturday night.
“The idea of the expo is to provide the SA
public with an environment where they can
get tattooed by great artists of their choosing,” Manuela explains. “But, as important,
it’s also a platform for tattoo artists to showcase their artistry, skill, and creativity in an
open and social environment and for the SA
public to see how varied and evolved the industry has become,” she says.
“The event is of a very high standard,
which of course helps to change out dated
perceptions,” she explains.
“But overall the stigmas are pretty out dated. We are living in a different world now,
and personal expression is encouraged,” she

points out.
There will also be a ‘tattoo-athon’ over the
coming months in aid of the CHOC Childhood Cancer Foundation SA.
V Tickets for the convention cost R100 per day or
R250 for the weekend and are available at www.quic­
ket.co.za. Weekend passes include free entry to the
live music on Saturday night.
V Doors open at 17:00 on Friday and at 11:00 on Satur­
day and Sunday.
