INRYTEATER | DRIVE-IN THEATRE
In 2020 moes die Suidoosterfees ingrypende aanpassings maak word om ’n feesgeleentheid wat veilig vir kunstenaars, feesgangers en alle betrokkenes is, saam te stel. Die volgende doelstellings het as boustene vir uitgestelde, alternatiewe feesaanbiedings gegeld:
In 2020 the Suidoosterfees had to make major adjustments to create a festival that was safe for artists, audiences and all involved. The following goals served as building blocks for postponed and alternative festival offerings:
- Fisiese byeenkomste moes binne die voorskrifte van nasionale regulasies plaasvind
- Optredes moes in regstreekse (“lewende”) formaat plaasvind
- Dit moes ’n platform bied vir jong én gevestigde kunstenaars
- Werk moes voorsien word aan kunstenaars, tegnici en verskaffers
- Gehalteproduksies moes as eenmalige, unieke aanbiedinge ervaar word
- Vermaak moes toeganklik en bekostigbaar wees
- Physical gatherings had to take place within national regulations
- Performances had to be in live format
- It had to provide a platform for both young and established artists
- Work had to be created for artists, technicians and suppliers
- Quality productions had to be experienced as one-off, unique offerings
- Entertainment had to be accessible and affordable
Om aan bogenoemde doelstellings te voldoen, is daar besluit om die Suidoosterfees in die formaat van die klassieke inryteater te laat herleef. Produksies is in ’n splinternuwe baadjie geklee sodat groter gehore vanuit die gemak en veiligheid van hul motors na aanbiedings op die verhoog én die silwerskerm kon kyk.
Weens die aard en omvang van die inryteaterkonsep is slegs musiek- en komedieproduksies aangebied. Met die uitbreek van die pandemie en die gevolglike uitstel van die 2020-Suidoosterfees het die direksie ingestem om ’n 50%-deposito as oorbruggingsbefondsing aan elke produksiegeselskap te betaal. Ontwikkelingsprojekte, wat die spilpunt van die fees is, is by formele aanbiedinge geïnkorporeer.
To meet the above goals, the festival decided to revive the format of the classic drive-in theatre. Productions were given a fresh new look so that larger audiences could watch shows, both on stage and on the big screen, from the comfort and safety of their cars.
Due to the nature and scale of the drive-in theatre concept, only music and comedy productions were presented. With the outbreak of the pandemic and the postponement of the 2020 Suidoosterfees, the board approved a 50% deposit as bridging funding to every production company. Development projects, which are central to the festival, were incorporated into the formal programme.

MUSIEKVIDEO’S | MUSIC VIDEOS
In 2020, toe Covid-19 die wêreld getref het, is ons almal in isolasie gedwing. Teaterdeure moes sluit en feeste is gekanselleer. Om werk vir kunstenaars te help verseker, het die Suidoosterfees verskeie projekte aangebied wat in isolasie geskep is, soos hierdie vier musiekvideo’s wat saam met Kaapstad se Musiekakademie vervaardig is.
In 2020, when Covid-19 overwhelmed the world, we were all forced into isolation. Theatre doors had to close and festivals were cancelled. To continue job creation for our artists, Suidoosterfees presented several projects that were created in isolation, such as these four music video productions with the Cape Town Music Academy.
