ABOUT
Lovers of top class independent theatre are in for a treat as this festival gem visits Durban for the first time. Following sold-out runs in Jo'burg, Cape Town and the National Arts Festival, “The Agents” is on for one weekend only at the Seabrooke's Theatre in Feb 2026.
If you haven't yet met the unforgettable Venter, Linda and Brenda, then you're in luck! The Fleur du Cap nominated ensemble of Roberto Pombo, Lisa Derryn Overy and Kyla Davis shine as a trio of deliciously devious over-the-top estate agents who are willing to say and do anything for their next sale. No one is safe from their hilariously sharp critiques - from slick real estate agents, to clueless home buyers, to neighbourhood watch groups (you know the ones…) – as they gleefully tear apart the cut-throat world of property development, gentrification, fancy estate living and the Capitalist Dream itself.
Directed by physical theatre legend Toni Morkel, “The Agents” is a cut-throat satirical comedy that is 'screamingly funny and entertaining' and a 'smart play, with a superbly crafted script, zany performances with clowning, mime and physical comedy and satire which zips and thrusts.' (The Cape Robyn, 2024)
With a massive dose of irreverence and a keen eye for the ridiculous, Hayleigh Evans, founder and director of POPART says that this show is a 'must-see for anyone who loves a spicy satire, or can also laugh at themselves’.
