While revolution brews outside, they watch soap operas &#8212; 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.<br \/>  Ticket Prices: Tues R66, Wed &amp; Thurs R90, Fri &amp; Sat R140, Sun R100<br \/> Directed by emerging black talent Princess Mhlongo, who recently impressed audiences at the Market Theatre with her production of Zakes Mda&#8217;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 &#8212; South Africa&#8217;s legendary director. <\/p>\n<p>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.
