Theater One
Physical Theatre Festival
Visiting Company

A simply staged but powerful and enormously energetic piece of wonderfully synchronized improvisational theatre, utilizing sounds, narrative, mime, and physical action in exciting ways to explore the backgrounds of the various characters and their experiences of life under apartheid. During that time, township houses were properties of municipalities and black families living in them had to pay rent. The amount was steep for many households who got by with incomes from poorly paying jobs. The situation has come back to haunt the poor once again, as many people today battle to keep up with payments for municipal services and electricity. Despite its heavy theme, the sad story is told through dance, singing, mime, and a lot of humor.
