Purchase online anytime, by phone (973.395.5551) or in person Tuesday through Friday 10 AM-3 PM A searing coming of age story about a white teen who has grown up in the affectionate company of the  two black waiters who work in his mother's tea room in Port Elizabeth. When he learns that his viciously racist alcoholic father is on his way home from the hospital, an ensuing rage unwittingly triggers his inevitable passage into the culture of hatred fostered by apartheid. "One of those depth charge plays that has lasting relevance and can triumphantly survive any test of time... The story is simple, but the resonance that Fugard brings to it lets it reach beyond the narrative, to touch so many nerves connected to betrayal and guilt. An exhilarating play... It is a triumph of playmaking, and unforgettable." — The New York Post Jamil A. C. Mangan as "Sam"               Tony Knotts as "Hally"               Beethovan Oden as "Willie"
