Description Pieter-Dirk Uys' new show is about two things that were illegal in South Africa for most of his life: democracy and sex. Interracial and homosexual relations were against the law. And so laws were broken! It looks beyond South Africa at a world paralysed by fear - and how this situation in apartheid South Africa led to the destruction of humna rights and hope.
The show uses humour as a weapon of mass destruction and destraction.
