Synopsis:

Ubu and the Truth Commission combines puppets, actors, music, documentary scenes and animation. The show is based on the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s of South Africa’s interrogatories and on the play Ubu Roi (King Ubu) created in 1888 by the French playwright Alfred Jarry. In this production, Ubu is a police officer for whom torture, murder, sex and food are variations of a single coarse appetite.
