He had it coming, a collection of sketches, poetry and songs by Mike van Graan (Pay Back the Curry, State Fracture, Land Acts), will be performed by the multi-talented Kim Blanché Adonis
under the direction of Daniel Mpilo Richards.
With Richards – Van Graan’s collaborator in his most recent one-person, multi-sketch revues – now concentrating on filmmaking and music, He had it coming provides a platform for a new talent to be introduced to audiences around the country, with Richards serving as an ideal mentor.
He had it coming picks up on themes in contemporary South African discourse – particularly around issues related to patriarchy - and seeks to provide commentary mostly in a satirical form, inviting laughter as much as critical reflection.
“This show should be seen by all South Africans” was a regular line in the written feedback from audiences after it first premiered in 2019 with its national tour cut short by the COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns.
Now, with a fresh talent directed by someone who has ‘been there, done that’, He Had it Coming is set to provoke, entertain and inspire yet again.
*16+ / parents can decide what is suitable for viewers younger than 16 but those under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult.
