INTRODUCTION

I came across Pumla Gobodo-Madikizela’s fine book by chance in a bookshop in London’s Charing Cross Road. I’m always on the lookout for books about my country’s past, its slow transformation and its future. When I read it, I quickly realized that its insights apply not only to South Africa but also to any society that has gone through the trauma of repressive violence.

The first insight is that one can understand the roots and the causes of violence without excusing it in any way. Another is that if a society is to move on, perpetrators of violence need to repent, and that they and their victims need to achieve some degree of reconciliation. These needs exist wherever one looks. I thought not only of South African death and torture squads, but of similar state-licensed perpetrators in Central and South American dictatorships, in the Middle East, and in Guantanamo and Abu Ghraib.

At once I wanted to write a play based on the book. The more that people have a window into these issues the better, I thought. And I had a hunch that the intensity of Pumla’s meetings with Eugene de Kock would make compelling drama. Besides, as a playwright, I loved the theatrical challenge of a physical situation so confined that one of the characters can’t even move from his seat.

The book’s publisher, Eric Abraham, who is also a producer of plays and such films as the Oscar winning Kolya (1996) and Ida (2015), commissioned me to adapt the book. I went to Cape Town to meet Pumla. I trailed her for a week or so, pestered her with questions, listened as she counseled other black academics, watched as she wielded her great capacity for empathy and admired her calm analyses at a conference for victims of state violence. The broken or mutilated bodies of some of the witnesses were powerful reminders of the still very recent past. Their optimism was an inspiration.

Pumla and I flew to Johannesburg in the hope of visiting de Kock in Pretoria Central Prison but were told, in a last minute call, that he would receive no visitors. However, Pumla has visited him more recently to discuss the play and she has described to me his continuing engagement with the process of reconciliation. And when the play toured from the Fugard Theatre to the Market Theatre in Johan- nesburg, Matthew Marsh and Noma Dumezweni travelled to the prison to have the extraordinary experience of meeting the man whom they were playing and confronting onstage.

In January of this year, the South African Justice minister announced that announced that de Kock had been granted parole.

The words that de Kock speaks in my play are drawn partly from Pumla’s book, partly from recordings she made of her interviews with him and partly from the records of Truth and Reconciliation hearings. Inevitably, some of the dialogue is my invention. It was a strange joy for me, after many years of writing for English audiences, to recapture the Afrikaans rhythms that I learned and spoke as a South African schoolboy. This was one of the ways in which Eugene de Kock, “Prime Evil,” became a real person to me, in all his complexities and contradictions. I hope he will to you too.

Mark Morris’ The Hard Nut is the festival’s endcap.

It’s a fitting celebration to end a cross- genre/era Next Wave.

Harvey Theater Sponsor Salutes CONTEMPORARY COLOR #ContemporaryColor

Color Guard Rocks! Color guard*, a competitive art form that has evolved out of military tradition, fuses athletic team sport, high octane acrobatics, and pep rally spirit. Part of a wildly popular phenomenon in high schools, colleges, and universities across North America, color guard teams of 20 or more performers set dazzling routines to music or spoken text, using props like flags, rifles, and sabres.

Contemporary Color is a unique, arena-scale music and movement event conceived by musical poly- math David Byrne. The first production partnership between BAM and Barclays Center, Contemporary Color features 10 North American teams performing to original music composed and performed by pop and rock luminaries, including Nelly Furtado, How to Dress Well, Devonté Hynes, Lucius, Money Mark + Ad Rock, St. Vincent, tUnE-yArDs, David Byrne, and Nico Muhly + Ira Glass.**

Commissioned by BAM and Toronto’s Luminato Festival, Contemporary Color will be presented on June 27 & 28 at Barclays Center, Brooklyn (and Toronto’s Air Can- ada Centre on June 22 & 23). For many months, color guard teams and their com- posers have been meeting and conferring at various competitive events and at the massive world championships in Dayton, OH, preparing a spectacle like no other.

According to David Byrne, “I think it’s a wonderful, peculiar, under-appreciated and very creative art form*** and one that deserves to be seen and experienced—in a slightly different context, by a wider public. Elaborate costumes, professional athleticism combined with modern dance, and rock stars in their element.”

*If you grew up in NYC, you may never have heard of color guard. **Ira Glass is not a pop/rock luminary, but he’s pretty great. ***We think it’s a good idea to go with David Byrne on anything he describes as “wonderful, peculiar, under-appreciated, and creative.”
