Navigating surreal encounters and the complex timelines of Southern Africa, this poetic production poses profound questions about legacy, identity, and the enduring shadow of colonialism.<br /> <br /> The play was selected from [[The Baxter]] Masambe Playlab, where a cohort of 10 creatives attended a four-month long, writing residency, which was held at The Baxter in 2021 and which offered writers time, space, peer-to-peer mentoring and financial resources to create new work. It formed part of The Baxter’s Platform for Special Talent programme which is made possible by the City of Cape Town. <br /> <br /> ==Performance history in South Africa==<br /> <br /> 2022: Presented in the [[Baxter Golden Arrow Studio]], directed by [[Kitso Seti]], with [[Buhle Qinga]] and [[Sivuyile Dunjwa]].
