Laaiplek hawe
Title: “Laaiplek hawe”, by Andries Bezuidenhout, oil on canvas, 30x40cm, 2016
Laaiplek is a small harbour for fishing trawlers on South Africa’s West Coast. Laaiplek means “loading place”. It is close to the town Velddrif, on the mouth of the Berg River. Velddrif had its own river harbour, upstream from Laaiplek. This harbour serviced a fish canning factory that was set up after the Second World War to employ returning soldiers. Over time the river became too shallow, rendering this harbour unviable. As a result the Laaiplek harbour was constructed in the river mouth, but closer to the ocean.

Koos en Roof kom Pretoria toe!
Kom sit saam met Koos Kombuis en Andries ‘Roof’ Bezuidenhout om die kombuistafel en luister hoe die twee woordkunstenaars heerlik en hartlik gesels tussen splinternuwe liedjies en ook ʼn paar wat ou herinneringe wek. Na suksesvolle optredes op die verhoë by die KKNK in Oudtshoorn, die Stellenbosse Woordfees en die Breytenbach-sentrum se Bôrdienghuis teater in Wellington, is Terug na die Kombuis! nou uiteindelik in Pretoria op die planke. Dra ʼn lady van die bodorp nog tekkies en ʼn oorhangtrui? En wat van liefde wat grense oorsteek? Deesdae dra mense eerder posters as pasboeke. Kom sien waaroor die bohaai gaan! In die woorde van die resensent Herman Lategan: “…gaan kyk self. Dit sal nie ʼn teleurstelling wees nie.”
Waar? Atterbury Teater by Lynnwood Bridge (op die hoek van Lynnwoodweg en die N1)
