The Beauty of Incomplete Things

This provocative new South African play is for the discerning theatergoer and can be enjoyed at The Intimate Theatre in Cape Town until 16 February, taking place from Tuesday though to Sunday at 8pm nightly.

In The Beauty of Incomplete Things David, a flamboyant and dramatic diva-worshipper takes Tommy, his studly trophy masseur, to his cabin in the middle of the woods for his birthday weekend. David's intimate birthday celebration is interrupted when one of his best friends, Lawrence, a renowned actor, gatecrashes his fantasy. It features pow-wow performances from Rowan Studti in the challenging role of Tommy, with Wojtek Lipinski as David and Andre Lombard at Lawrence.

Fantasy and reality collide head-on in their brutal quest to find happiness. The truth surfaces and strips them bare, ultimately setting them free and releasing them from their humanity.

The Beauty of Incomplete Things speaks to everyone, as its voice echoes the memories that feed our fantasies, and the fears that prevent us from finding true happiness in world that has lost control. It is not an issue-play, but one that celebrates the frailty of humanity and digs deep into fractured relationships and the dark side of human nature. Despite its somber darkness, it also has some great humour, particularly when these three vibrant characters explode in a sea of raw emotions and kick into survival mode.

The Beauty of Incomplete Things definitely shows that everything in life does not have to be perfect to be conventionally acknowledged.
It is in the flawed lives of our fragile existence, lost loves, and lonely survival, that the true beauty of our humanity surfaces.
