Twee reisende spelers, ’n verteller en handlanger (afgewater uit die Commedia dell'arte kader), skets drie verhale: die biografie van ’n traan, ’n liefdesdriehoek tussen matador, mantel en bul en ’n legendariese nag van passie. Wessel Pretorius en David Viviers keer terug na KKNK met Klara Maas se hart is gebreek, plus twee nuwe verhale wat saam ’n trilogie oor lewensiklusse van drie hard-‘vogtige’ helde, vorm. Die eerste van dié drie verhale, is as deel van die KKNK se eerste Uikampteater-projek in 2016, met die Kanna vir beste debuutwerk bekroon. 


Media & Reviews

"My Afrikaans is not perfect, and the words fly at a pace so I didn’t catch every single one of them, but I think that made it even better, because I was witnessing the wonder of every single prop that surrounded the stage being used, the hilarious and perfect slapstick, the amazing chemistry between Wessel and David, the mastery of the story telling and magic of live performance."

Review of 'Klara Maas' by Megan Furniss

"a very delicately woven physical theatre comedy experience"

Wessel Pretorius is 'n briljante dramaturg. Die gefokusde, energieke spel van Wessel Pretorius en David Viviers is 'n plesier! Afrikaanse teater met 'n brein en balls.

Absolutely loved it! It's one of those Afrikaans shows that have travelled around to all the festivals, but I've never been able to watch and enjoy it, and I'm so glad I got the opportunity (and in such an intimate space).

Eerste en derde dele van trilogie was briljant! 2de een uitstekend, maar het vir my effe afgesteek by die ander. Baie dankie aan Wessel en David wat so skerp op mekaar ingestel is en so mooi daarin slaag om die teks te respekteer en dit net genoeg ruimte te gee, want in ander se hande kan die teks op loop sit met die akteurs - wens ek kon my skoolkinders ook daar hê! Dit was my eerste besoek aan die venue - lieflike atmosfeer, maar joe! die teatertjie het baie bedompig geraak!

Absoluut skitterend aanmekaargesit! Wessel & Dawid vorm 'n fantastiese verhoogpaar. ;) Ek weet nie hoe hoog Wessel was toe hy met die toneelstuk se idee opgekom het nie, maar ek wil ook daarvan hê.

This was a fantastic show. I went to go see the show with my mother. She loved it. Well written. It was funny. Full of energy. Over the top. Imaginative. Most of all it was camp. Not many can pull off camp well, this show was deliciously campy! Bravo.

We arrived early for drinks and food - the vibe and service was great! When one enteres the upstairs theater, you get greeted by an inviting stage (full of fun and in-the-cheek props), a comfortable cool room temperature and a lot of anticipation. The sound was good, the crowd interactive, and the actors absolutely brilliant! What an Exceptional show! I will watch this one again and again - the humor is on point and the acting of a very high standard! We had a blast of a time! Bravo

Stunning! Completely unique and fresh. Also extremely hilarious! Superb show. My daughter has seen the show at Woordfees and since then she just wanted us to see it as well. Ek moet ook dan eerlik se al haar positiewe aanmerkings en lus-makertjies oor die stuk, was ook oortref deur hierdie fantastiese opvoering! Regtig Briljant.

Brilliant! What a fresh, vibrant show. The story has so much heart and, and this is rare, has the technique and skill on the performers and writers part to do its quirkiness justice. We walked out with massive smiles wanting to eat ice-cream and hug strangers. PLEASE keep on doing Afrikaans theatre. Your venue is such a wonderful platform for these artists and an opportunity for us to see these gems.

A ridiculously hilarious trilogy about bodily fluids? In a world as crazy as the one we are currently in, this feels positively normal. A love struck teardrop, an eternal droplet of blood and a spermatozoon with a hankering to fly. If this doesn't tickle your soul, nothing will.
