Dark and Disturbing BASH for the Alexander Upstairs this February and March

Award-winning theatre-maker Tara Notcutt (...MISKIEN, THE THREE LITTLE PIGS, MAFEKING ROAD) will stage Neil LaBute's BASH, a disturbing journey into the inner lives of seemingly ordinary people, at the Alexander Bar, Café and Theatre this February and March.

A collection of three dark and delicious one act plays, BASH explores the complexities of evil in everyday life.

Made up of unforgettable personal accounts by seemingly nice people, BASH is one of the playwright's most popular and biting works. His signature rich and raw language fills the mouths of a woman who tells of her complex relationship with her high school English teacher, a businessman who confides in a stranger in a Las Vegas hotel room, and a young couple who recount the events of an anniversary weekend.

Written in 1999, BASH went on to win the Time Out Critic's Choice Award and has enjoyed hundreds of productions all over the world. Notcutt's South African production will star Alicia McCormick (MATE, ANGELS ON HORSEBACK, THE THINGS YOU LEFT BEHIND) and Jacques Theron (SHEPHERDS AND BUTCHERS, LOT, BABBEL).

BASH runs from 28 February - 15 March at the Alexander Bar's Upstairs Theatre at 21:00. Tickets are available from the Alexander Bar website and cost R90 if booked and prepaid online, while tickets will also be available at the door for R110. It has an age restriction for those under 16 years old. For telephone enquiries, call 021 300 1652. The Alexander Bar, Café and Theatre is situated at 76 Strand Street in the Cape Town city centre and can be followed on Facebook and Twitter.
