Keevy has trouble remembering what sort of bio he should be writing – a writer? A designer? A director? A producer? Like many people hustling in the Cape Town theatre industry he has to be more than one of these at any given time. 

As a writer Keevy flounces through different genres, from Children’s theatre to saucy sketch comedy, to solo shows dealing with dark South African themes. Most of these he has produced himself or with the aid of ASSITEJ and/or the Theatre Arts Admin Collective. A Girl Called Owl was invited to the Brighton Fringe Festival, UK in 2013, where it was the 3rd best International Production according to Latest Magazine. In 2014, the show sold out at the National Arts Festival in Grahamstown. Get Kraken! for younger audiences won Jon his first Standard Bank Ovation Award at the NAF and Dirty Words (definitely not for younger audiences) won him his 2nd.  He also runs Alexander Upstairs, the tiniest theatre in Cape Town (also, the best).

Briony’s best work so far is as Olivia, Kay and 8 other characters in A Girl Called Owl (2012-15). She has done some Shakespeare as Lady Capulet in Romeo and Juliet Unplugged (directed by Anthea Thompson, 2009), 30 characters in The Big ‘O’ (directed by Ashley Dowdes, 2010) and as Lady’s Macbeth and Macduff in Macbeth (directed by Nkosinathi Gaar, 2015). She has also been on screen as Sasha in Scandal! (2013), Zoe in The Wild (2011), Zoe in Karoo (winner of best short film 2011) and Joan in Wounded (feature film recently released on Mzansi). 

She has toured South Africa with multiple children’s theatre productions, directed 2 small children’s theatre companies and been production assistant for Hugh Masekela’s management team for the past 5 years. The skills she learnt through these experiences served her well as producer of A Girl Called Owl on tour in South Africa and the UK from 2013 to 2015. 

Cara came in to this Industry in 2011, starting out with a supporting lead role in the international feature Fynbos, and landing her first leading role in a feature film Durban Poison in 2012. Since then she has made a mark in the South African film industry circuits, and it wasn’t long until she stepped into the world of theatre. Taking part in productions such as The Guards; directed by Josette Eales, Over the Hill; directed by Dominique Gumede,  Paradise Lost, directed by Grace Gummer and playing Desdemona in Think Theatres’ Othello; directed by Clare Mortimer. Cara has wanted to perform a Neil Labute for ages, and takes the role of Carly in Alby Michael’s and Neil Clasen’s production of Reasons to be Pretty.
