One hour of fall-down laughter
This funky, funny and original comedy written by Melissa Wood and Catherine Mace was nominated in 2004 for Best Original Script and Best Comic Actress.
Described as a “slice of life”, Stitch is directed by Mike Broderick and is about 3 women attempting to hike in the berg, which fact alone has the audience …”falling off their chairs and crying tears of laughter” (Giselle Turner, Daily News). Add all the issues the three women feel they must share and Stitch is “… one of the best pieces of theatre I have seen in a long time”
- Peter Machin, Independent on Saturday).
The trio of hiking, exhausted women, (3 times Vita Award winner Catherine Mace, Vita Award Nominee Calli Denton, and Durban Theatre Awards Nominee Melissa Wood) are honestly trying to put their lives back in order, up a mountain, while trying to pitch a tent, cook 2 minute noodles and make espresso!
“The script rockets along, full of hilarious dead-pan responses, gut-wrentching slapstick, wicked repartee and gutsy, honest stand-up comedy! This is a 9 out of 10!”
- Daily News
This hit show was sold out has at Durban’s “Not the Grahamstown festival” and at the annual “Hilton Arts Festival.” It has also been performed to full houses at the Kwasuka and the Square Space Theatre in Durban.
“Briskly paced…this witty script has the audience laughing out loud often!...It is a great deal of fun!” - Billy Suter, Natal Mercury
