'White people in their big shiny cars drive many kilometres with
their sickness which I heal; sickness of the mind, body and of the
soul. I charge a bit more for the soul'. At night, a young black
boy is 'questioned' by a white South African policeman...36 years
later, when the truth is dug up, a tortured Jennifer watches over
her dying husband. But does her maid Beauty have the power to
'save' him, and is the price of remembering a dreadful secret one
that Jennifer is prepared to pay? "Bones" is a ruthless excavation
of South Africa in 2005, and in an age of threats, retribution and
bloody revenge, it is an anthem for hope. It is a production
directed by Adshead opens at the Bush Theatre in October 2006.
