As 2014 speeds along to its final curtain, it is once again time to reflect on some of the theatrical highlights on South Africa's stages over the past 12 months. First up, we have six of the best plays seen in theatres around the country this year.
As a play text, WOUNDS TO THE FACE is perhaps not as brutal an onslaught on audience reception as some of Howard Barker's other plays, but this production by the University of Cape Town's Drama Department certainly does reveal how challenging the piece is to realise as theatre, especially for young actors who can take away a great deal from engaging with a piece like this.
The University of Cape Town's Drama Department will present a production of Howard Barker's WOUNDS TO THE FACE, directed by Geoffrey Hyland, who recently directed a highly acclaimed production of the same playwright's SLOWLY.
