Expelled

Event information

Expelled is a play about social media’s power to connect and its power to destroy. Can a few minutes of bad judgment ruin a life?

Following on from their multi-award-winning, highly acclaimed production of The Beauty Queen of Leenane, How Now Brown Cow presents a local, topical, powerful, new work on the South African stage.

Expelled is a family drama which focuses on the largely ungoverned world of social media. Alex, a Matric pupil at an elite school, gets caught up in a viral scandal and is suspended. Once shared, lives alter in seconds, what’s seen cannot be unseen. The ramifications for his family are profound.

Written by Rosalind Butler, Expelled was created out of How Now Brown Cow’s script development programme, The Writers’ Collective, during lockdown in 2021. Directed by Craig Freimond, the cast features Charmaine Weir-Smith and Antony Coleman alongside Nicolas Hattingh. Designs for the production are by Kieran McGregor and Daniel Rutland Manners.
