About This Book
Itsoseng is a play for one actor, exploring the fortunes and personalities of a South African township before and after the 'miracle' of the 'new democracy' of 1994.
For the Right Reasons is a short play written especially for schools about the aspirations and frustrations of ex-township students who now live in the suburbs, and township students who travel by train each day to attend school in the suburbs.
Omphile Molusi was the first recipient of the Brett Goldin Bursary Award in 2007. He spent a month working with the Royal Shakespeare Company in Stratford-upon-Avon. In this volume he writes about his time there.
Itsoseng has been presented in 2008 at the Baxter Theatre Centre in Cape Town, the Market Theatre in Johannesburg, the King Dome Pleasance Theatre at the Edinburgh Festival, the Soho Theatre in London, and the Everyman Palace Theatre in Cork, Ireland.
