RAAK Comes to The Drama Factory
by BWW News Desk - July 25, 2018
RAAK is die verhaal van 'n oomblik tussen man en vrou. Hulle begin, en die begin van hul einde. Die stukkie garing wat stadig ontrafel, vinniger en vinniger, tot die punt waar jy nie meer daaraan kan vasklou nie. Waar begin die einde? Is dit 'n oomblik van geweld, van weet? Of is dit iets wat ontaard uit jare se stilte, jare se sluk, se soek en staar? Is dit Raka, die ding wat binne elke mens woordeloos wag? Soos die bokkoppe wat teen die huis se muur hang? Staties. Sonder skroom. Iets oorgeerf.

BOX. Comes to Alexander Upstairs
by BWW News Desk - July 24, 2018
Whether we like it not, we are consumed by our connections to cardboard boxes. As a child, with the delight of life around every corner, the box is the most amazing gift-not the contents, just the box. As a parent, when the mind and body separate more with each passing day, our possessions (and sometimes our bodies) are stored in boxes for future generations to curse and explore. Are we to be summed up solely by the contents of a cardboard box-a somewhat nihilistic attitude in corrugated paper? box. unabashedly demands ransoming our lives from the boxes tucked away under the bed, back of the closet, down in the basement, up in the attic and gives voice to the process, often painful, of packing and unpacking our lives.
