CALL US CRAZY (All Ages)

The award-winning comedy is ‘black’ by popular demand at the Market Theatre. Call Us Crazy is essentially a hilarious comedy that sees South Africans laughing at themselves. The satirical theatre gives flash-glimpses of South African life in the townships, urban and rural areas, unconvincing parliamentary debates, corruption in government and more uniquely South African scenarios, in a humorous manner. On the driving seat of this leg of the run, is a stellar award-winning all-female cast playing multiple roles with ease. Featuring: Khutjo Green, Momo Matsunyane & Zevie Mampofu.
Fast-paced, multi-conventional and full of pun and intended meaning, Call Us Crazy tells the story of a disillusioned road construction worker, Auntie, whose mission is to tar all the roads in the world. Having worked for the same construction company over 27 years, Auntie breaks ranks with her colleagues, Half-Half and Amper-Baas, in a huff after concluding that they work for an ungrateful and chauvinistic employer. While Auntie's dream to tar the world sounds like an impossible and idiotic idea, a finer line of an ambitious character emerges as she succeeds in opening her own construction company, which she aptly calls Vuka! Africa Road and Paving Construction Company. Will she reach her dream, or will it be a bumpy ride filled with potholes?
