It is about rugby.
It is about father-son relationships.

It is about being white.
It is about being brown.
It is about being black.
It is about race relationships.
It is about blood.
It is about the language.
It is about South Africa.
What is even more astonishing is the fact that the playwright is a woman who dared to look into the inner world of the man.
Saartjie Botha based her play on the comments that people make on line about various issues. Mostly anonymous or hidden behind pseudonyms. It is here where the true South African can climb on his soap box and discuss religion (rugby), gods, God, Afrikaans, skin colour and ball possession.
Do not miss this discussion. Some of it will make you smile but, some of it will also want you wipe away a tear.
