Die een wat bly

WITH Grant van Ster, Shaun Oelf and Daneel van der Walt SCRIPT AND DIRECTOR Wessel Pretorius and company MUSIC DIRECTOR Shaun Oelf CHOREOGRAPHY Figure of 8 Dance Theatre SET AND LIGHTING DESIGN Gideon Lombard STAGE MANAGER Nell van der Merwe PRODUCTION MANAGER AND PRODUCER Marie Vogts 

A Figure of 8 production, in collaboration with the KKNK and Suidoosterfees. Supported by NATi, the Festival Enterprise Catalyst (FEC) and the Jobs Fund.

Die een wat bly is part dream, part testimony. Using the company’s personal memories as a starting point, it sketches the relationship between mothers and their sons. It is a combination of dance and drama that revolves around the narrative of an artist who travels back to his childhood. After a dancer’s mother dies, he strolls through the flashes of his memories, as well as the imagined secret life of his mother, to come to terms with his past, his identity, his family and his future. Dance and physical theatre are supported by text to expose loss, and the special and intricate relationship between mothers and their sons on the road to healing.
