Hospitale, kateters en familielede

WITH Wynand van Vollenstee, Thiart Li, Stephanie Baartman and Marissa Claasen SCRIPT AND DIRECTOR Wynand van Vollenstee  STAGE MANAGER Yvette Hanekom PRODUCTION ASSISTANT Martin Breedt PRODUCER That’s Freakin Nice Produksies

Development supported by Innibos.

Shared bathrooms. Constant noise. Fluorescent lights permanently on. Sharp smells attempting to camouflage other smells. Germs that cling to everyone and a friendly kitchen staff member trying to convince you that you’re ordering from a top à la carte menu. Hospitale, kateters en familielede is a hilarious, absurd comedy that will have anyone who has ever been in a hospital, in stitches, and even shedding a tear. Fourteen characters tell the stories of their procedures, relationships and family, like it can only be dished up in a hospital. The stories, characters, absurd procedures and medical equipment leave much to be desired for these souls, who fight together in what seems like a hopeless situation. Yet there is something to discover and learn from others: Those who go through our darkest experiences with us become our best friends ... or maybe not. Meet the nurses, doctors, patients and family members, and even a dachshund, who tell a true South African story bursting with laughter. Bestseller at Innibos (2024).
