Synopsis
‘Once they’ve been here long enough, they’re no longer squatters.
Then they’re simply… Neighbours.’
★★★★ ‘Superb social satire’ – The Guardian
In the quaint suburban community of Stillwater, a mysterious shack springs up from the dust with the inhabitants nowhere to be seen.
As speculation abounds, new residents Sihle and Bonolo are recruited by their neighbourhood to be the face of a campaign to demolish the shack in this biting satire of community politics.
A Good House is a thrilling and comedic new work, from writer Amy Jephta, about a couple who discover the limits of good neighbourliness and what is required to fit in.
Directed by Nancy Medina (Trouble in Mind, National Theatre), A Good House is a co-production with Bristol Old Vic in association with The Market Theatre, Johannesburg, South Africa.
Originally co-commissioned by the Royal Court Theatre with the Fugard Theatre, South Africa.
