South African writer Craig Higginson's powerful new play is a dark,
witty and sexually-charged psychological drama told through the
eyes of a beautiful English teacher and her French-Congolese pupil.
A 'state of the nation' exploration of the tensions between the
first and third worlds the play explores issues around language,
power, identity, sex, past trauma, class, exile and refugees. An
exciting new co-production from the internationally-renowned Market
Theatre from South Africa and two of the UK's most prestigious
theatre companies. This gripping two-hander is a highlight of the
Traverse programme. Higginson packs a lot in under the seemingly
innocuous guise of a young English woman giving language lessons to
a French-Congolese student in contemporary Paris -- Fiona
