EXPECTANT is a contemporary coming of age story told against the backdrop of a 400 year colonial history of young, white, English speaking South Africans; and how their identity revolves and dissolves around what it means to be “from this country”. Posed as the late-night conversation-stains of a young woman who finds out she’s pregnant and isn’t sure she can stomach having another version of her own uncertainties materialise in front of her – EXPECTANT addresses the fault lines in our country’s creolized culture with a dark sense of humour and sobering interpretation of the “new” South Africa.
Written, Directed and Designed by Penelope Youngleson. Sound design by Joanie and Ben Ludik. Stage Management by Philip Rademeyer.
