New York Innovative Theater Award-winning solo artist Andrea Caban returns to Cape Town! The idea that one person can be expected to know everything, fix everything and be everything and is not indeed a mythic superbeing becomes clearer and clearer throughout our lifetime. Creator Andrea Caban deals with this truth and her own personal journey in QUESTIONS MY MOTHER CAN'T ANSWER.
After she was hit by a New York cab, Caban embarked on a vision quest, seeking answers about life from a "donations only" prostitute, a Moroccan dancer and her own aunt - whom she portrays as interviewees onstage. The writer/actor's characters are the result of stories collected in interviews with actual women, and they touch on the travails of living in a man's world. The show has received beaucoup praise from critics across the USA. The New York Theatre Review says, "I left the theater feeling like I had gained something I didn't even know was missing". To get a taste of this extraordinary one-woman show, please visit the show's website.
Don't miss her return to Cape Town in two performances only at Alexander Upstairs on 6 April 2013 at 19:00 and 21:00. For telephone bookings and enquiries please call: 021 300 1088.
