The crippling impact of a class system, and the notion that all are haunted, in some way, by the ghosts from the past, are examined. Buried Voices is a contemporary, multi-lingual re-telling of Strindberg’s Ghost Sonata, which translates the play’s core themes into a contemporary South African context. Although centred within a classical text, the production applies contemporary and innovative physical staging and soundscape techniques.
