BY Pieter-Dirk Uys
WITH Terence Bridgett
DIRECTOR Basil Appollis
One man. Several unforgettable characters. Terence Bridgett takes you back to the wild, exciting days of Cape Town’s legendary Space Theatre where drama, dance, comedy and chaos collided. Meet the colourful souls of Long Street, from cheeky bergies, a flamboyant restaurateur, a sharp-tongued ageing prostitute to a ruthless censor. A nostalgic salute to the fearless spirit of theatre in the 70’s and the city that made it possible. Kicking off of Pieter-Dirk Uys’ 80th birthday celebrations!
