by Donald Howarth (1931-).
A play about a subsidised group of actors who perform Ibsen to dwindling audiences, whilst themselves reliving the bourgeois romantic situations of The Seagull and The Cherry Orchard.
The play had been commissioned by the Market Theatre and had its world premiére at the Grahamstown Festival, 1979, directed by Donald Howarth, followed by a season at the Market Theatre in Johannesburg.
