The original text
A one act verse play with two characters ("Hy" and "Sy"), dramatised as a physical theatre piece.
It seems that the initial draft text for this play was called In die Lente ("On the spring"), but appears to have been altered to Pampoenfluit, probably at the suggestion of the director, for performance. (An annotated computer printout of In die Lente is held in the archive of the Drama Department at Stellenbosch University),
