Sonde met die spoke

WITH Veronique Jephtas, Veronique Jephtas, Tinarie van Wyk Loots and Michele Burgers SCRIPT Marianne Thamm DIRECTOR Lee-Ann van Rooi DESIGN Carin Bester STAGE MANAGER Ronel Jordaan PRODUCER KKNK

A co-production of the KKNK and Suidoosterfees. Made possible by NATi. Supported by the Festival Enterprise Catalyst (FEC) and the Jobs Fund.

Dusk descends on Arbeidsgenot in Oudtshoorn. Angelique Jacobs, a security guard at the Langenhoven Museum, prepares to lock the house leading to the attraction and museum ... And then the past begins to haunt her. Literally. Because the women in Langenhoven’s life are not so happy with the version of the stories that are told about them. What Angelique thought she knew and what she proclaims as the truth is challenged by the ghosts who have a completely different story to tell. Marianne Thamm, award-winning investigative journalist, debuts with her first play. Her curiosity about who and what Langenhoven was and what he means today, led her to the women in his life. With humour and pathos, Thamm offers a new look at a history that everyone thinks they know, and just maybe a skeleton or two will fall out of the closet

Director Lee-Ann van Rooi is the recipient of the 2025 Kunste Onbeperk Kruispunt Award.
