FAK Songs and Other Struggle Anthems is a cabaret written by Pieter-Dirk Uys.

Original text

Pieter-Dirk Uys’s Bambi slaughters sacred cows with her sharp wit, and The Federasie van Afrikaanse Kultuurvereniginge (FAK) Songbook is ripped to pieces, rearranged and spiced up with bloodthirsty vulgarity and embarrassingly accurate lyrics containing all the sad sordidness and joy of the human condition.

Performance history in South Africa

2010: It was first staged in Cape Town, directed by Uys with himself as Bambi Kellermann and musical director Godfrey Johnson. The members of Bambi's Bokkie Band were Rayelle Goodman, Heather Roth, Mac McKenzie and Hilton Schilder.
