Online streaming during Covid-19: Master Harold โฆ. And The Boys
The Fugard Theatre in Cape Town is celebrating its 10th birthday in 2020. A jam packed programme was scheduled for this year. The launch production was Athol Fugardโs play, Master Harold โฆ. And The Boys which was due to run from February 4 to March 21, 2020. Covid-19 intervened and because of the national lockdown in South Africa, the curtain came down early at the theatre and the season was interrupted .
The enterprising folk at the Fugard Theatre arranged a film recording and it is available to watch โ at no charge โ see details below.
I was fortunate to see this superb production and gave it a five star review. See the review on this website, TheCapeRobyn.
