“So What’s New” Comedy at Market Theatre Johannesburg: Extracts

10 April 2016 By admin

A MyJHB.co.za selected Market Theatre Johannesburg video for you:

Written by Fatima Dike and originally directed by Barney Simon, So What’s New? is a domestic comedy about four township women who work in and outside of the legal system. While revolution brews outside, they watch soap operas — their private lives acting as an increasingly powerful counterpoint to the forces of darkness at work beyond their garden wall. Production runs until August 14, 2011.
Ticket Prices: Tues R66, Wed & Thurs R90, Fri & Sat R140, Sun R100
Directed by emerging black talent Princess Mhlongo, who recently impressed audiences at the Market Theatre with her production of Zakes Mda’s And The Girls in Their Sunday Dresses, this promises to be a fresh take on a once much-loved play, nurtured by Barney Simon — South Africa’s legendary director.

The production features an all-star cast: Andrea Dondolo, who captures South African small-screen audiences on Stokvel; Thuli Thabethe, whose riveting performances have won fans on the most-watched TV series, Zone 14; and, revisiting our stages, is the multi-talented Sibulele Gcilitshana. We also welcome the new talent Zimkhitha Kumbaca. TV production of excerpts by Paul Tilsley and the Competent Artistes team. www.competentartistes.tv
