Market Plays By Stephen Gray
All Books are second hand
For a decade the Johannesburg's Market Theatre has been the single most exciting, and provocative, venue for experimental drama, a unigue meeting place of talents, styles and subjects. This cross-section of its plays celebrates that energy and originality. Included are:
This is for Keeps: An award-winning two-hander about marital violence.
Pula: The mime and musical drama, which shuffles roles to talk of a community with plaintive force and unforgettable spectacle.
Shades of Brown: The long-running confrontation play between a folk psychiatrist and a policeman.
Hey, Listen: Three witheringly satirical and compassionate monologues on city life.
Appassionata: The experiemental recital-play by Pieter-Dirk Uys, written for a pianist-actress.
