Theatre on the Square is proud to present a revival of Paul Slabolepszy’s classic play
Written and directed by Paul Slabolepszy, the memorable narrative moves from pure nostalgia, through extreme heartache, to unbridled joy… The Return of Elvis du Pisanie is unmissable. It is, all at once – sad, amusing and gloriously uplifting……!
Eddie du Pisanie, a forty-nine year old East Rand salesman is retrenched and decides life is no longer worth living. Desperate and alone in his car, he switches on the radio. The Elvis Presley song he hears does more than take him back 30 years – it recalls an event in his childhood that changed his life forever. Can we change our own destinies? “Elvis” du Pisanie is about to find out!
After rave reviews on his South African theatre tour, renowned talent and well known face on television and film, Ashley Dowds, is delighted to be back at Theatre on the Square. He will be remembered for performances in productions such as Hard Love by Mottie Lerner, Soil by Renos Spanoudes, Old Boys by Anthony Akerman, Blue Orange by Joe Penhall.
