TEASE! – A blow wave of sexual awakening
starring
TUMI MORAKE
and
VANESSA FROST
directed by
JOSE DOMINGOS
27th February – 21st March
First lady of comedy, TUMI MORAKE and the original ‘CaveWoman’, VANESSA FROST team up again for the Naledi-nominated TEASE! at the Auto & General Theatre on the Square from the
27th February to 21st March.
TEASE! premiered at the National Arts Festival in Grahamstown followed by a sold out run at the Market Theatre in 2016.
Eva and Neo, best friends and partners in a suburban hair salon reach crossroads in their personal lives. Stumbling into an adult toy shop one night, they make some acquisitions
and this inspires an idea…
With a healthy dose of self-deprecating
By arrangement with the Auto & General Theatre on the Square, the show will be presented by Bloom & Stone, a creative agency and production company that focuses on creating meaningful and accessible content. Vanessa says the meeting of minds in the process was synchronous and that extensive research went into the writing of the script. They found themselves exploring heartfelt and hard truths in order to present a potent message about female sexuality and desire.
“It’s been about finding the comedy in each of these moments, while exploring the moments that don’t require comedy,” she says. “It’s about answering the question we all quietly worry about – am I normal?”
Director, Jose Domingos says TEASE! is a journey of self-discovery. “The themes are universal which means that I think there’s something in it for everyone.”
Written by Jose Domingos, Vanessa Frost and Tumi Morake, TEASE! opens with a preview at Sandton’s Auto & General Theatre on the Square on 27th February and runs until the 21st March.
