Hamerman is a play by Tone Brulin (1926-2019)

The original text

Written by Tone Brulin as a play of dance, song and acting, it is based on the book My Traitor’s Heart by South African journalist Rian Malan (1954-), notably focussed on experiences of the tempestuous 1980s under the apartheid dispensation.

Performed between 21 February 1997 and 11 April 1998 by Nieuwe Realisaties Theater at various venues in Belgium (e.g. Wereldculturencentrum Zuiderpershuis, Antwerpen; CC Ter Dilft, Bornem; and Theater Teater, Mechelen), directed by Brulin with performers Ivan Pecnik and Bodé Owa. Thereafter also performed in Malaysia and other countries.

A typed copy of the text is held in the archive of the University of Stellenbosch
