14 Mar 2009 This is a modern South African adaptation of Reigen, about a series of ten love scenes of interconnected characters in different sexual situations. The setting is no longer Vienna during the 1890’s, but the capital city of South Africa, Pretoria in 2008.

The scenes and structure of the play have been altered to fit specific South African scenarios, and although the circular structure of the original play has been maintained, the difference here is that the whole adaptation revolves around the world of theatre – based on the two characters in the play, the Poet/Playwright and the Actress.

Using the South African manner of storytelling, the play consists of six black actors (three males and three females) playing all the ten roles in the play, the Playwright acts as a narrator of sorts, connecting one vignette to another until the circle is completed at the end.
