About me:


written by Ian Bruce
directed by Kirsten Brandt


The hottest new play to come out of South Africa!

In a beachfront guest lodge on the jagged edge of the South African diamond coast, we find Thami, the black caretaker, and Johan, a white ex-cop who lives at the lodge, gunning for one last chance at a better life. When Smith, a wealthy businessman, arrives at the lodge on a foggy evening, the two desperate friends see Smith as the perfect investor for their “get-rich” scheme to buy a government-run diamond concession — tossing a glimmer of hope and promise into their difficult lives. But as the evening wears on, the darker side of their dreams and aspirations is fueled by greed, danger and entitlement from the uneasy history they share. This haunting psychological thriller hungers, hopes and promises for a just post-apartheid society, while asking: How do we live together after apartheid? Where did all the promise and hope go? Who bears responsibility for the sins of the past, and can we move beyond it?

Approx. Performance Run Time: 90 minutes, with no intermission.


Who I'd like to meet:

Rhythm, Race and Reflection
October 27 at 6:30 p.m.
San Jose Rep, American Leadership Forum and Oriki Theater present:


The night kicks off with African drumming by Oriki Theater, followed by Groundswell. After the performance, American Leadership Forum will lead an interactive dialogue with audience members designed to take your theatre experience to the next level. Great seats are still available! The event is included in the regular ticket price.

James Bowyer Photo Exhibit
South African photographer and writer, James Bowyer will unveil his current exhibit entitled "Dreams of the Colony." James Bowyer is a freelance photographer who currently divides his time between Cape Town, South Africa and Oakland, California. Born in South Africa under apartheid, James was inspired by the role that photography and journalism played in unmasking the horrors of apartheid and bringing around democratic change to the country. The photographs have been carefully chosen to relate to the themes of the play.
