Reza de Wets multi-award winning psychological thriller takes a close and at times darkly comic look at the legacy of oppression. Rarely staged outside South Africa, this intriguing play raises a question that reaches beyond time and place. Liberated from tyranny, can the oppressed ever truly be free? Barebones Project presents Directed by Naomi Wirthner Cast:
The rain will never come. And in the dust, Sussie and Frikkie play out the punishment rituals of the past. Nothing is prohibited. There are no taboos. What will happen when an unwelcome visitor enters their world?
