Awards made by the Department
André Huguenet Toekenning (Award)
Made to the best male student performance in a leading role, by University of Stellenbosch Department of Drama. Donated by Hannes Horne in 199*, the floating trophy is the actual sword used by André Huguenet in his 1957 production of Macbeth.
Anna Neethling Pohl Toekenning (Award)
Made to the best female student performance in a leading role, by University of Stellenbosch Department of Drama. Donated by Hannes Horne in 199*, the floating trophy consists of a framed headband, one of the many distinctive headbands traditionally worn by the grand dame of Afrikaans theatre, Anna Neethling Pohl. *** (Because of the fact that they were made of plaited material, they were affectionately referred to as her "koeksusters" [a typical South African sweet cake] by her students).
Mark Graham Toekenning (Award)
