National Arts Festival hit FATHER, FATHER, FATHER at Alexander Upstairs Theatre this August

The Standard Bank Ovation Award-winning FATHER, FATHER, FATHER is a devised theatre piece created by Roberto Pombo, Joni Barnard and Rachael Neary, directed by Toni Morkel. Following two seasons at the National Arts Festival in Grahamstown, the production will make its way to the Alexander Bar's Upstairs Theatre this August.

FATHER, FATHER, FATHER follows the story of three sisters, locked in the basement, awaiting the return of their father - and a big black horse.

BroadwayWorld reviewed the production during its National Arts Festival run, with South African contributing editor David Fick saying:

FATHER, FATHER, FATHER is a cut above what usually passes for satire in contemporary South Africa. Figures like Pieter-Dirk Uys and many local stand-up comedians have downgraded their social satire into edgy comedy that nibbles when it should bite, but FATHER, FATHER, FATHER devours its audience. We laugh even when its teeth cut a little close to the bone.

The zany and quirky FATHER, FATHER, FATHER will run from 8 - 12 August. Tickets cost R100-R120 and can be booked online at the Alexander Bar website or purchased at the bar. For telephone bookings and enquiries, call 021 300 1652. Alexander Bar & Café is situated at 76 Strand Street in the Cape Town city centre and can be followed on Facebook and Twitter.
