WiCDS presents: The Agents

The Wits Centre for Diversity Studies presents a one-off performance of smash hit play 'The Agents' by Robaby Productions, at the Wits Downstairs Theatre on 30th July 2026. Tickets are free but booking is essential.

Wits! Babes! It’s finally your turn! If you haven’t yet met the unforgettable characters of Venter, Linda, and Brenda, then you’re in luck. This Fleur du Cap–nominated ensemble shine as a trio of deliciously devious, over-the-top estate agents willing to say and do anything for their next sale. No one is safe from The Agents’ hilariously sharp critiques. From slick property influencers to clueless home buyers to neighbourhood watch groups (yes, you know the ones…), they gleefully tear apart the cut-throat world of property development, gentrification, luxury estate living and the capitalist dream itself.

Written and performed by Kyla Davis, Lisa Derryn Overy and Roberto Pombo, and directed by physical theatre legend Toni Morkel, 'The Agents' is the outrageous satirical comedy we deserve.

Described as a ‘smart play, with a superbly crafted script and zany performances’, The Agents features expert clowning, mime, and physical comedy in a contemporary satire that ‘zips and thrusts’ (The Cape Robyn, 2024).

Put in that offer now for a cringe-inducing cautionary tale that will leave you laughing hysterically while questioning the price of the dream you’ve been sold.
