They share childhood memories of their mother, yet have wildly contrasting life experiences due to their different fathers. Morrie wants to take them away from their township shack, buy a small farm and make a new life. To take their minds off the struggle, they decide Zach needs a pen pal. But who should it be? An innocent game can quickly go wrong...

A vital part of the anti-apartheid movement in South Africa, playwright Athol Fugard s prolific career spans seven decades. His work includes The Island, The Road to Mecca and Master Harold and the Boys.

Matthew Xia s stylishly stark, brilliantly acted production is extraordinary. The Times on Sizwe Banzi is Dead 6 7
