(“Hodoshe’s Work-team”) by Athol Fugard, John Kani and Winston Ntshona. Original name of The Island, first performed at the The Space (Cape Town) under this name in July 1973 because of the political circumstances in South Africa and was only called The Island when it went to London. In all the other venues where this production ran the audience had to watch ten minutes of the opening digging ceremony, but at The Space (Cape Town) this was lengthened to twenty minutes. Directed and designed by Athol Fugard with Zola (Winston) Ntshona and Bonisile (John) Kani. Lighting by Brian Astbury, with Bee Berman as stage manager. (See also The Island.)

Astbury, 1979.
