Event Type: On Stage, Comedy

Mrs Evita Bezuidenhout, Kidi Amin, Pik Botha, Nowell Fine, Mrs Petersen, the old Krokodil, Madiba and the dancing DA are coming to the rescue! In a time of depression, recession, fear and anger, what is better and more healing than a good laugh at the expense of those who depress, recess, frighten and annoy us? Thirty years ago Uys started his total onslaught against careless, corrupt and unacceptable politics. Apartheid might officially be dead today, but the careless, corrupt and unacceptable political crooks and clowns are still dancing centre-stage. His new show will be a personal political comedy-trek along a familiar long tiptoe to freedom, through the minefields of racism and sexism that have always made up the tarmac of our political freeway. Laughter at fear has always been Uys`s trademark, from the darkness of his first one-man show in 1982 `Adapt or Dye`, to the dazzling kaleidoscope of rainbow colours in his new 2012 show `Adapt or Fly`30 years after Adapt or Dye, Pieter-Dirk Uysproves that when history repeats itself it takes tragedy and turns it into farce. A must-see on our road to Mangaung.
