Fugard’s toughest and most moving political play. One of theatre’s most affecting dissections of social upheaval.—Linda Winer, New York Newsday

Generational conflict over the most effective means for ending Apartheid in South Africa leads to an explosive confrontation between a gifted but impatient Black township youth and his devoted but old-fashioned Black teacher in this deeply felt and richly imagined drama. The unexpected involvement of a young white woman who befriends and learns from both men strips away the political trappings to reveal the human trauma at the heart of South Africa’s tragedy.
