New page

Border plays are a genre of dramas, a sub-section of the so-called “border literature” [“grensliteratuur”], written mostly in Afrikaans, but also in English, that deal with the war on South Africa’s borders in the 1970s and 1980s.

Examples include: ''[[The Dead Wait]]'' by [[Paul Herzberg]] (1997), ''[[Somewhere on the Border]]'' by [[Anthony Akerman]], and ''[[Môre is ‘n Lang Dag]]'' by [[Deon Opperman]].
