THE FALL is a vital and frank collaborative piece of workshop theatre devised by the original cast. When the statue of Cecil John Rhodes was dismantled at the University of Cape Town, seven Drama postgraduates wrote this searing, insightful play about race, class, gender, sexism, colonialism and ideologies of patriarchy. It took South Africa by storm during the #RhodesMustFall, #FeesMustFall and subsequent student movements' demonstrations in 2015 and 2016. Seeking to unpack discrimination in all its forms, the play does not offer solutions to the questions raised by the movements which inspired it but hopes to create and nurture dialogue. Facilitated by Clare Stopford, THE FALL is curated by Ameera Conrad and Thando Mangcu, two members of the ensemble cast, the vibrant cast also including Tankiso Mamabolo, Oarabile Ditsele, Zandlie Madliwa, Sizwesandile Mnisi, Sihle Mnqwazana and Cleo Raatus. This dynamic young company is back to wow South African audiences in the wake of global events that remind us that decolonisation is still a relevant, vital and urgent topic all over the world.
