Abstract:
"And besides, nothing ever happens here. Nothing. Niks.'Outside a South African town a silent woman, Ruth, goes through her self-imposed rituals, a child's crib strapped to her back. An observer, Simon, who has loved Ruth since childhood, tells her story. Tshepang was inspired by the horrifying rape in 2001 of a nine month-old child. The child, Tshepang, gave her name to Lara Foot Newton's award-winning play, though it is also 'based on twenty thousand true stories"--The number of child rapes estimated to occur in South Africa each year. Having premiered in Amsterdam in June 20.
