Pieter-Dirk Uys, South African author, satirist, and social activist, brings his latest show SELL-BY DATE to Pieter Toerien’s Theatre On The Bay from Wednesday, 17 May until Saturday, 10 June. It’s the world premiere!
The show is called SELL-BY DATE and, as expected from his one-person performances, features not only the man himself, but also a cluster of topical characters, male, female… and political.
Theatre on the Bay,
Being active in live theatre since the late 1960s, he is not surprised when people now ask: ‘When will you retire?’ His answer is short and sweet: ‘Not retire. Retread!’
This 2023 performance will also show Uys at his 77-year-old best: laughing at fears and embracing facts with his tongue firmly in your cheek.
“This satirist, commentator and comedian still has it in spades!” THE CITIZEN
“Uys clearly has his finger on the pulse of the nation. He will get you giggling, while hitting you hard and making you think.” THE STAR
“Uys dons eyelashes, and presidents listen.” THE LA Times
“Sparing nobody and nothing, he reaches for the jugular in every context – but more entertaining than the sheer skill of characterisation and his ability to force you to laugh at your greatest fears, is the unique structure of this production.” SA Jewish Report
