The System is an internationally acclaimed, multi award winning show that used physical expression, miming and dialogue to tell a story about three prisoners.
Happening on an empty stage with no props the story of poverty, crime riddled communities, injustice, compassionate,
betrayal, friendship and values in modern day South Africa is explored.
Based on the life experiences of three young South African males, The System follows the events leading to the
men’s daring escape from prison following their unusual dramatic and unconnected incarcerations and their subsequent escape and their journey thereafter.
