MOFFIE

With David Viviers

Moffie made its world premiere in London in 2024 to rave reviews, including a 5-star rating from The Guardian. This is a gripping, visceral exploration of identity, masculinity, repression, forbidden desire and the lasting scars of institutionalised violence. Set in the brutal world of the South African Defence Force in the 1980s, this stage adaptation of André Carl van der Merwe’s novel dives into the pressures of military conscription, where conformity is law and difference is met with violence.
