The audience are taken through the events in the weeks before the Soweto Uprising and see the physical and emotional scars they bear from fighting against the brutal Apartheid Regime. 'Colour Is Too Sweet' explores the strength of relationships between these resilient women and their unyielding devotion to the movement they sacrifice so much for.Now Panic Theatre are delighted to be producing Maya Pillay's debut play - This is a story inspired by reality. This is not a history play. I grew up with stories of South Africa, of my dads memories of prison, of the murder of one of his best friends, of my Mothers part in the movement here, of my Aunts sacrifice, of my Uncles bravery. This play is a homage to them, particularly my dad, who began writing a book about his experiences before becoming unwell. Hes helped me with Colour is too Sweet where he can and continues to remind me to talk about the women. Theyre braver than people know.'Colour Is Too Sweet' will be part of the Playmill Festival curated by the Kings Head Theatre, London. Performed on 8th & 9th July at 20:00.
