"Don't scorn words. If the struggle needs weapons give it words, My
Africa! Thami. Stones and petrol bombs can't get inside those
armoured cars. Words can. They can do something even more
devastating than that ... they can get inside the heads of those
inside the armoured cars." This powerful play by one of South
Africa's most famous playwrights delivers a forceful message to a
modern world plagued by political and social conflict. Burning
questions asked by those who lived through apartheid are as
relevant today as they were thirty years ago. What is the best way
to bring about political and social change? Violent action or
transformation through words and ideas? Fugard's play is about a
school teacher who has invested all of his dreams for a better
society, a better South Africa, in one of his pupils. The school
teacher and the brilliant young man come into conflict with each
other because they choose different solutions to their country's
educational and political problems. A moving play that will
challenge South African learners to engage with universal questions
about education, relationships, authority, politics and humanity.
