Die Wraak van Ex-koningin Bobbit

Die Wraak van Ex-koningin Bobbit ("The revenge of ex-queen Bobbit") is a play by Ben Dehaeck.

Also found written Die Wraak van Ex-koningin Bobbit

The original text

Written as a grotesque fairytale, seemingly inspired by the famous case of Lorena Bobbitt[1], the play was judged the best youth drama in Afrikaans at the annual drama festival organised by the Department of Education and Culture in the Western Cape in 1994.

The text is unpublished, though a a copy of the typed script was found in the Stellenbosch Drama Department archives in 2022. Handwritten comments in pencil suggest the text is one used by a judge for the festival.
