 Pink loves Rolly. Rolly loves Pink. And Pink loves getting bombed off her face.

Sisters from the same nest. Both trapped in a tiny rotting world. Both cuffed to a past that refuses to release them.

One wants out. The other needs her in.

Trouble is that when you complete each other, you're nothing on your own.

Starring two of South Africa's exciting talents, Ashleigh Harvey and Janna Ramos-Violante, directed by the accalimed actress and director Fiona Ramsay, this is a theatrical experience not to be missed.

Audience Responses

it is fascinating that a play that was commissioned in the UK to support the work of a charitable organisation/NGO/whatever they call it in the UK transported so well to SA. I really enjoyed it. Liked the text, the performances and the direction. A very bleak play but well worth seeing. Glad I saw it.

It got me talking for the whole weekend! I found it compelling.. I wouldn't necessarily see it again. But I thought the piece was electric. It gripped me and kept me on the edge of my seat for the whole performance. World class performances and directing.

It was such a thought provoking story, heartsore and tender . Disturbing but brilliantly acted by both woman. We have seen quite a few theater shows at popart and each one has been excellent. A wonderfully worthwhile afternoon out.
