The British playwright, Anthony Shaffer, made his name on the international stage with Sleuth and Murderer,  his best murder thrillers. Murderer became a hit horror film as well. The play, Moordenaar, is a reworked translation into Afrikaans by Carel Nel en Nico Luwes for Drama and Theatre honours students’ practical examination. Luwes also directed the play in 1986 for PACOFS with Blaize Koch and Gerben Kamper portraying the murderer and the sergeant.  This bloody, physiological thriller is meant for audiences with hair on their teeth and a preference for horror stories. The play opens with probably the most blood chilling and macabre murder scenes in theatre history. The dramatist twits reality and illusion masterly and leaves the audience not only thrilled, but also confused. With the 1986 PACOFS production, audiences streamed to the show and a few faint hearted members ran out of the theatre after a few minutes of watching the blood and gore! Shaffer explores the true nature of murder and the strange fascination the deed holds for the murderer. The often strange connection between the murder and the victim is investigated in this fascinating drama where reality and illusion are brilliantly manipulated. The sergeant’s warning is clear. Avoid experimentation with macabre murder and sexual games. Fantasy can easily become reality. So be warned - Moordenaar is not for the faint hearted!
