Details

The notorious and infamous Khoisan, Koos Sas was accused of murdering a shopkeeper in Montagu, South African in 1917. In this musical work, Koos Sas is re-imagined as a rebellious hero - a thorn in the side of the farmers and the state. Shot as an outlaw, he was the last of what the authorities considered to be 'bushmen robbers' of the previous century. Koos Sas is a love story played out against the background of racism and subjugation, a celebration or pre-industrial innocence, from the award winning company that brought you Kat and the Kings and Spice Drum Beat: Ghoema. Performed in Afrikaans with English surtitles
