... miskien returns to the Baxter

Five years after it premiered in the city, ... miskien will be performed at the Baxter Golden Arrow Studio, Cape Town, from 2 to 27 September, 2014, at 8.15pm.

Presented by The Pink Couch in association with Freckle Productions, ...miskien is directed by Tara Notcutt (The Three Little Pigs; Mafeking Road; Last Rounds; WhatWhat) and features Albert Pretorius (The Three Little Pigs; Playland; Doodsnikke; Balbesit; Binnelanders) and Gideon Lombard (The View; Special Thanks to Guests From Afar; Porgy and Bess). It is written by the cast and director, with design by Tara Notcutt and lighting by Matt Lansing.

... miskien returns to the Baxter

Performed in English and Afrikaans, ... miskien is a simple story of two guys: best friends who are stuck in similar dead-end jobs and nondescript lives, both waiting for Happy Hour at the end of each day to drink, talk about rugby and other regular guy stuff, to drag them into the next. It is a story that examines the spaces between people, and what we do, what we don't do, what we say, and what we don't say, when we want to fill these gaps.

"... miskien is about the deep love you can feel for someone that can't be expressed," says Notcutt. "It explores how we often talk, but never say what we really mean."

Be part of the historic Birthday Bash on 25 September when ... miskien marks its 100th performance and producer The Pink Couch turns five! Celebrate in style with the cast and team after the show with pink champagne and cake.
