HEDY! THE LIFE & INVENTIONS OF HEDY LAMARR, an award-winning and critically-acclaimed solo show from New York, will make its South African debut at the Alexander Bar, Café and Theatre this October. Written and performed by Heather Massie, the 75-minute play is directed by Matthew Kalil in Cape Town and Blake Walton in New York, with artistic consultation from Walton and Leslie Kincaid Burby. Hedy Lamarr, the glamorous siren of the silver screen, was more than the most beautiful woman in the world. She invented frequency hopping and spread spectrum technology, making the world of wireless communication tick. From Austria to Hollywood, through ecstasy and intrigue, from torpedoes in WWII to the cell phone in your pocket, she was - and is - there. Ages: Under 18s must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.
