Synopsis

Play Me is a story of what can go wrong in a relationship if the cracks are left to exist without repair.  The cracks open wider and, like an open wound, begin to fester and – ultimately – rot. This story of power and love explores those seven deadly sins through the life of an unstable couple who invite “strangers’ into their lives to level the playground. This metaphor is beautifully captured on stage by four characters, Joe, Jack, Pretty, and Julia. Play Me is a riveting drama, full of wit, sex and intrigue, all going to the heart of present day South Africa’s struggle for equality and opportunity for all.
