'To Kill a Hadeda and Crows' bring sound-driven storytelling to life, where voice actors and a foley artist build entire worlds through noise, rhythm and imagination alone.
If you’ve ever wondered what a murder mystery sounds like when it gets stripped down to voices, noise and imagination doing the heavy lifting, this is it.
The Masque presents an evening of live-stage audio drama with "To Kill a Hadeda and Crows", where voice actors and a foley artist recreate two very different stories entirely through sound.
The play is written by Dr Ian-Malcolm Rijsdijk and stars Shirley Johnston, Charles Tertiens, Brett Fish Anderson and Jana Coetzee.
It is set inside a polished security estate that looks like it has everything under control until the body corporate chairperson is found dead with hedge clippers in her chest. What follows is a lockdown, a growing list of suspects and a community where everyone knows everyone but trusts no one.
