THE TENT / Voices International
Theatre Festival
January 22, 12:00 PM E.T.
An online staged
reading of THE TENT, from South African playwright Megan Furniss,
directed by Zane Gillion.
Presented as part of
our Voices International Theatre Festival.
THE TENT is set in a tiny rural town in South Africa. A mixed
couple—Ruth is white, and Samson is black—pitch their tent alongside
the local gas station and store in the middle of the night. Their
appearance rocks the town and splits it down the middle, with fear,
racism, hatred, and violence at odds with kindness and healing. THE TENT
concerns the ‘other’ and the phobia that it sparks.
