Under the shade of a tree I sat and wept

Under the Shade of a Tree I Sat and Wept  At the Market Theatre for the opening of Under the Shade of a Tree I Sat and Wept, I love the Market Theatre.  For 10 performances only. Get your tickets now!  There are certain spaces that do not merely host performance—they hold memory. The Market Theatre is one such place. You do not simply enter it; you step into a living archive of South Africa’s artistic resistance, a space where stories have always carried the weight of truth. And in Under the Shade of a Tree I Sat and Wept , that truth is not revisited gently—it is ruptured, reassembled, and forced into the present tense. This is not a conventional play. It is theatre about theatre. A self-aware, shape-shifting work that refuses the safety of illusion. At one moment, you are submerged in the harrowing testimonies reminiscent of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission—stories steeped in brutality, injustice, and the unbearable intimacy of violence.

Like Michael Corleone, Tony Soprano, and Avon Barksdale, Walter White is a study in how intelligence, resentment, and pride combine to create a tyrant who believes himself justified at every stage of moral descent. Breaking Bad is not a crime story. It is a case study in ego, a long-form illustration of Robert Greene’s warning: “Great power often comes with great blindness.” Walter White: The Tyranny of Unfulfilled Potential Walter White is not weak.

The Big Bad Musical

The Big Bad Musical – Putting the Wolf on Trial and Fairy Tales on the Witness Stand There is something magical about walking into a theatre for the very first time. The architecture is unfamiliar. The corridors have no memories attached to them. Every light, every seat, every curtain feels like the beginning of a relationship waiting to happen. That was my experience at the Roodepoort Theatre . A beautiful venue with an undeniable sense of occasion. We were fortunate enough to sit right at the front, close enough to hear every laugh, witness every expression and become completely immersed in the world unfolding before us. It was my first visit, but if The Big Bad Musical is any indication of what this theatre offers, it certainly won't be my last. Produced by Stageworx , The Big Bad Musical (16–30 July 2026) takes one of humanity's oldest storytelling traditions—the fairy tale—and gleefully turns it inside out. Written by Alec Strum , with...
