Sizwe Banzi is Dead at Raven Theatre Company

From The Outer Loop Theater Experience, comes "Sizwe Banzi is Dead" by Athol Fugard, John Kani and Winston Ntshona. Sizwe tells the story of a man ordered to leave the district simply because he lacks the proper permit. Instead, he trades his name for a number, and begins life as a dead man… wreaking havoc with his identity, and his sense of right and wrong. Delicately balancing humor and pathos, the work offers both a psychological history of the apartheid nightmare, and timeless parables of the dehumanizing paradoxes of power.
