The Road

THE ROAD

The Road / 2021

THE ROAD is a multi-disciplinary performing arts project that brings together artists from South Africa, France and Sweden through 3D animations, virtual reality and live theatre.

P always take the bus to work, but one day everything is different.
A global pandemic puts everyone’s living conditions at its peak and life on and around the bus will never be the same again.
How will we survive when our loved ones die?
Who can we trust?

Can we find comfort and help in each other or are we hopelessly lost in grief and hatred?
After all, do we dare to fall in love again and hope for a future?

Based on Darling Desperado’s concept, the South African playwright Philisiwe Twijnstra has written the story THE ROAD, which revolves around four characters whose life stories are woven together into life and death.
