Who or what is criminality in South Africa today? That's the big question at the heart of this dynamic physical theatre piece. Essentially the story of two brothers - the thief and the business man - it deconstructs the binary divisions between victim and perpetrator, to present a complicated, disturbing but still amusing portrait of contemporary South Africa.

It consists of a series of narrative memorials, commemorating some of the compelling moments in 100 years of our history, on the spot where they happened. This national project includes 40 narrative artworks, including 10 in the Western Cape. Visit www.sundaytimes.co.za/heritage.
