The many strands that are plaited together in this South African play by Lara Foot Newton create an extraordinary pattern of pain and hope, rooted in an even greater pattern of cultural inheritance. The British premiere of Karoo Moose at the Tricycle Theatre weaves destruction and redemption; oppression and escape; traditional African story-telling with leaps of fantasy; tragedy and humour; tension and exuberance. A young girl, Thozama, twists her way through this thorny world, blighted by a drunk, debt-ridden father and a brutal abuse by his creditor, but, in this tangled existence of broken families and society, no one person or cause can be blamed as the perpetrators are also the victims. Images of fallen fatherhood pervade the play but Karoo Moose is also full of soul and meeting the mysterious moose acts as a metaphor for Thozama to break the endless cycles of violence and social disintegration as a thread of promise weaves its magic.

About Tricycle Theatre

The theatre was founded in 1980, and rebuilt after a devastating fire in 1987.
