APGRD Notes
Première performance of Fugard's, Ntshona's, and Kani's The Island. It was performed under the title Die Hodoshe Span, since references to Robben Island prison camp would have been banned. The première was followed by several revivals and international tours, e.g. in 1995 (ID 8126) and in 2000-2003 (ID 2845).
