MEMORIAL HALL
ABOUT
Winner of a Standard Bank Silver Ovation Award and directed by Rob Murray and Quintijn Relouw.
Whistleblowers tackles the themes of GBV and sexual assault through the lens of a field hockey match. It is the final game of the season, and the championship title is on the line. But the stakes are much higher, as the play reveals back-stories that the young women have been experiencing. As the lines between the game and social commentary start blurring, and the team finds a collective voice of anger at the plight of women in this country, the team needs to make a vital choice: attack or defend.
“It is a solid team, well directed with touches of physical comedy reining in the didactic, with imaginative use of set and wonderful touches of mask work…Whistleblowers is a winning work.” – CUE
