The final monologue

Wiseman having a nightmare – his grandfather calls him in his dreams.

Reading for the character of Oupa Ledwaba

Masiza Mbali, Joseph Langa after he was just accused of stealing the ID of Wiseman’s grandfather.

They are playing a board game – we invented a hybrid between chess and checkers.

Masiza Mbali (left) now playing Joseph and Simpho Mathenjwa playing Zanemvula. The two actors swap characters.

Joseph and Wiseman playing a game. The silent wage is whoever wins will tell the other the truth behind their motives; a grandson looking for his lost grandfather and a man living with his grandfather’s ID. What really happened to the real grandfather?

Wiseman telling Joseph his reasons for looking after a dead ‘ghost’ which haunts him every night.

Details of the premier at PopArt. This play is specifically targeting 7-11 year olds.
