The opening of a new play delving into the complexities of current South African politics will continue its residency in Ledbury.

'The Brothers, Number One and a Weekend Special', is the first play written by political analyst Richard Calland.

The drama tracks a two-year history of state capture and the rise of finance ministers in South Africa since 2015.

The performance portrays secretive dealings, racial divisions, and a volatile political landscape.

Performances are set for 7pm on Friday and Saturday (May 10-11) and 3pm on Saturday and Sunday (May 11-12).
