Themba is another great storyteller but one who is steeped in the street life of South African townships. Le Costume (The Suit) is a folk fable adapted by the late Barney Simon and Mothobi Mutloatse. ——————————————————————————————————1/6—— On Stage is moving — see page 408 IS LOVE IN THE AIR FOR YOU? p148 W EndA-G W EndH-N W EndO-Z TV Guide

Clearly, what he has found here is another vibrant community full of larger-than-life characters, who are perfectly able to break into song if it will move the story along. The joyous feel is not attributable to the plot or individual performances. ——————————————————————————————————3/6—— Lifestyle 140 IS LOVE IN THE AIR FOR YOU? p148 W EndA-G W EndH-N W EndO-Z TV Guide

The story, in which a suit on a hanger becomes the missing lover, has all the fragility of a folk fable and is told with only four actors. Sara Martins (the wife), Isaac Kounde (the husband), Sotigui Kouyate (the storyteller) and Rachid Djaidani (as everyone else) are the cast. ——————————————————————————————————4/6—— Total Entertainment 140 ITV1 NEW GENERATION PHONE?

There's a real maturity here, a belief in the theatrical and the power of simple storytelling. If only Barney Simon had lived to see this Young Vic staging of the story he adapted and believed was one of the great tragi-comic love tales of South African literature. ——————————————————————————————————5/6—— Win an LCD TV 147 ITV1 RINGTONES FOR YOUR MOBILE ITV1 p359 W EndA-G W EndH-N W EndO-Z TV Guide
