But Something Dark, by Lemn Sissay, which I directed back when I was at Contact Theatre, opened at South Africa's legendary theatre (home of Athol Fugard and great anti-apartheid plays like Woza Albert) this week. Of course I was busy with auditions in Port Talbot and visits to Newport, so didn't have time to pop over for opening night, but if any of you happen to be in that part of he world, it's a beautiful show based on an extraordinary man's life story.
