South African playwright Athol Fugard's work demonstrates the power of theatre to incite social transformation. Fugard's plays have addressed the subject of Apartheid with remarkable candor, honesty and humanity. In post-Apartheid South Africa, however, his focus has shifted towards exploring the immense challenges faced by the country during the reconciliation process. In the U.S. premiere of Victory, Fugard continues to encourage deeper healing by exposing what he describes as the country's need to "cling to the moment when the miraculous happened, and not deal with the squalor and betrayal of the present."
