Candice Bernstein's earthside returns to Theatre Arts due to popular demand following its acclaimed run last month.
The production will be performed again for a limited season from today, Monday April 14, to Thursday April 17, at 7.30pm.
earthside is an auto-biographical one-woman dark comedy written and performed by Bernstein, directed by Jennifer Steyn and with lighting design by Kieran McGregor.
earthside explores Bernstein’s journey as a first-time mother while she navigates love, loss and ridiculously built underground parking structures.
It looks at the raw, chaotic and unpredictable space between life and death, diving head-first into the bittersweet reality of grieving while also becoming a mother: where joy and sorrow collide in the most absurd ways.
With humour as its guide, earthside takes an unflinching look at the complexity of existing in the in-between. It's a personal journey filled with moments of levity, deep reflection and plenty of irreverence.
Tickets cost R180 or R100 for concessions.
Theatre Arts is located at the Methodist Church Hall, corner Milton Road and Wesley Street, Observatory.
