Det Boys High Plays The South African State Theatre, March 10-27

Det Boys High will play at The South African State Theatre from 10 - 27 March.  The show is written and directed by Smal Ndaba and Phyllis Klots.  Tickets are R60 for adults and R30 for students.  For more information, visit the official website.  The play is in English with Zulu and Sotho.

Det Boys High, based on an actual event, is a revival of the highly energetic multi-award winning play first shown in 1991, raising pertinent educational issues, sadly still relevant today. This fast-paced raw slice of contemporary life incorporates traditional and urban songs, exploring corruption among teachers and the disillusionment of learners - the lost generation of students, who since 1976 have turned to crime as a way of life.

In the heart of the capital Pretoria the South African State Theatre is much more than just a complex of theatres. Functioning as a receiving house this unusual, stylish, centrally situated venue can accommodate almost any performance, function or special event. It offers a variety of exciting venues for performances, conferences, festivals, product launches, fashion shows, film festivals, weddings, parties, matric dances and farewells, lunches and dinners. Attend world-class shows ranging from Opera, Ballet, Musical, Drama, Cabaret and Children's Theatre.
