Under the Spotlight 2026

The Oakfields College performing arts faculty presents Under the Spotlight 2026, a showcase of the creativity, curiosity and artistry of its performing arts students. Across two nights at Wilge Teater in Pretoria, audiences can enjoy two distinct presentations: an original devised work, A Matter of Love, inspired by South African traditions and lobola negotiations, and On the Floor, a collection of acting class work from third-year musical theatre students. Expect clashing personalities, unexpected twists and performers finding their individual voices. This family friendly evening is a chance to support emerging talent. Tickets start from R60, so book early for Monday or Tuesday night.
