Details of all these productions can be
found on www.hiltonfestival.co.za. In a nutshell:
Cellist
with Rabies – excellent drama; funny; edgy; unlike
any other love story you could ever dream of!
The
Revlon Girl – the story of the Aberfan disaster in
Wales, poignantly told through the eyes of four grieving mothers; has won many
awards.
Sainthood – a cutting edge story created by a dynamic young company, looking
at real issues in an imaginary South African school: bullying, racism, abuse.
Don’t miss it if you are a parent, a teacher or a teenager.
Quantitative
Teasing – political satire written by SA’s own Mike
van Graan and starring the dynamic Daniel Richards. The awards heaped on the
heads of these two comic masters are too numerous to mention.
Kafka’s
Ape performed by Tony Miyambo has won a slew of
national and international awards and tells the story of mankind in all its
selfish, destructive horror through the eyes of an ape.
Benny
Bushwhacker is performed by well-loved performer,
Ben Vos. Written by John van de Ruit of Mamba
and Spud fame, and directed by Janice
Honeyman, this is a must for the whole family. Entertaining, humorous and
informative!
