Feedback
South African theatre veteran Andrew Buckland returns as writer and director in this play, assisted by award-winning performer Roshina Ratnam.
The cast from Baxter's Fires Burning company includes Carlo Daniels, Awethu Hleli, Nolufefe Ntshuntshe and Lyle October, known for productions such as "La Ronde", "Metamorphoses" and "Othello".
The show centres around a murder mystery which becomes a fast-paced and unconventional piece of physical theatre, touching on topics like food consciousness and globalisation.
Packed with humour, action and sharp social commentary, it celebrates both human generosity and greed.
Where: The Baxter Theatre Centre.
When: Runs until August 30. Show times differ.
Cape Town Opera: The Barber of Seville
Rossini's 1816 comic masterpiece returns with a fresh staging from Cape Town Opera. Bursting with wit and memorable music, this opera buffa follows the schemes of Figaro, played by William Berger and Thando Zwane in alternating performances.
Innocent Masuku, who recently debuted as Count Almaviva with the English National Opera, reprises the role alongside Dumisa Masoka.
Where: Theatre on the Bay in Camps Bay.
When: Runs until Sunday, August 17. Show times differ, depending on the day.
