A Day at the Theatre

Cape Town is known for it's community theater and today we got a double dose. First, we went to the Masque Theatre in Muizenberg to see a children's production called "The River of Life," an African tale about a village, a river, and the princess that saves them.

After meeting the actress who played the princess, Sophia made a frog costume out of recycled materials.

Brooke and I went to dinner at Burrata, in the Old Biscuit Mill of the Woodstock section of Cape Town. Here we are with one of the owners, Neil, a friend of our friend from way back in California, Brett Tebo.

Brooke and I went to see David Kramer and Teliep Petersen's Kat and the Kings at the Fugard Theatre in Cape Town's District 6. The musical is set in District 6, which was destroyed in 1966 by the apartheid government because it had been designated a white's only area. The Fugard is housed in a former congregational church building.
