The Brothers Size

Size up this powerful drama now showing at the Baxter Flipside


Catch the internationally acclaimed drama, The Brothers Size, at the Baxter Flipside every night until Saturday 9 June 2012.

This hot-blooded American act blends Louisiana bayou and West African mythology in an extraordinary theatrical showcase sure to leave audiences winded. The play explores the relationship between the two Size brothers, Oshoosi and Ogun, and their journey on very different paths. The story, though seemingly simple, is told through complex movement styles and music; making for a tale as humorous as it heartbreaking.  

This is only the third time a touring US production has visited South Africa since the nation’s democratic re-birth.

The Brothers Size will run nightly at 7pm until 9 June 2012. Ticket prices range from R90 on Mondays, R130 from Tuesday to Thursday and R150 on Fridays and Saturdays. Bookings can be made through Computicket or at any Shoprite Checkers outlet. For discounted corporate, block charities and fundraisers, contact Sharon on 021 680 3962 or sharon.ward@uct.ac.za
