                   were many people at the gates standing there looking for
                   work. And you chased them away!
        PERCY: Zuluboy, you are getting cheeky, huh?
        MBONGENI: I’m not getting cheeky. It’s true.
        PERCY: Ja! I’m cutting down your salary. I think you’re getting too much.
               Ja! Ja!
        MBONGENI: The boss can’t cut salary.
        PERCY: Ek gaan dit doen! [I’m going to do it.]

        PERCY: Zuluboy! Zuluboy! You sit around waiting for Morena and then
               you come and tell me about the cost of living? You talk about
               inflation? What do you know about inflation? I’ve got you here,

               fired.

             the bookshop, and we all know what happens there! Could 15
             she be an eager intellectual? A wide-eyed jazz maniac? A

 5.1    Consider the following South African Theatre analysis and respond to the

        (Most of the South African plays draw from many international theatre
        trends, movements and styles. These trends can range from the actual

                   setting in “Nothing but the Truth”.                                 (8)

        5.1.3      Mention any ONE of the international theatre movements.             (1)

                        EXTRACT FROM NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH
         SIPHO: How was your day?                                               1
         THANDO: Oh! The same grind. Former soldiers, policemen and
                 security people applying for amnesty. Saying they are sorry.
                 Sometimes I sit there translating, interpreting, and not even
                 feeling. It’s easy to get numb you know.
         SIPHO: That’s why I do not go anymore. It’s pointless.                 5
         THANDO: The truth does come out, and at least the families get to
                 know what happened.

         SIPHO: Their version of what happened.
         THANDO: Don’t start! Don’t start! I know how you feel about that.
                      Pause
         SIPHO: The undertaker must be on his way now.                         10
         THANDO: [as she exits]: Daddy, what did uncle Themba die of?
         SIPHO: His heart gave in, so says his wife.
        THANDO: [from the bedroom]: Why didn’t Auntie Thelma accompany
                 his body instead of Mandisa?                          14

daughter Meisie make a living by selling manure. Miem’s husband, Gabriël,
permanently stays in the loft, and everything he needs must be hoisted up to him.”

VRAAG 6: MIS DEUR REZA DE WET
Lees die volgende uittreksel van ŉ artikel deur Johan Coetser vir die Universiteit
van Kwazulu-Natal.
“In Reza de Wet se drama Mis (1993a), maak die ma, Miem, en die dogter Meisie
ŉ lewe daaruit om mis te verkoop. Miem se man, Gabriël, bly permanent in die
solder en alles wat hy benodig, moet vir hom opgehys word.”

6.2   Dit lyk of daar ŉ gevaar is wat met die geleentheid geassosieer kan word.

6.3   Hoe beeld die dramaturg armoede as een van die sosiale probleme in die
      drama uit?                                                                                 (6)
6.4   Bespreek die ironie van die besoek deur die polisieman.                                    (5)
6.5   Miem en Meisie het vir Gabriël pligsgetrou vir die afgelope sewe jaar
      bedien. Hoe is dit ŉ aanduiding van geslagskwessies wat in die toneelstuk
      aangespreek word?                                                                          (6)
6.6   Dink jy dat Mis die Realistiese teater (realisme) uitbeeld in terme van sy
      voorstelling en temas wat dit aanspreek? Verduidelik jou antwoord.                        (10)
6.7   Miem kom teen einde van die toneelstuk terug en kom agter dat Meisie
      vermis is.

        (Die meeste Suid-Afrikaanse toneelstukke word beïnvloed deur
        internasionale teatertendense, bewegings en style. Hierdie tendense kan
        vanaf die aktiewe proses van teater skep tot die styl van aanbieding dek.)
        5.1.1      “Nothing but the Truth” is op verskeie maniere tipies van die
                   realistiese teater. Is die stelling WAAR of ONWAAR?                  (1)

         THANDO: Oh! The same grind. Former soldiers, policemen and
                 security people applying for amnesty. Saying they are sorry.
                 Sometimes I sit there translating, interpreting, and not even
                 feeling. It’s easy to get numb you know.
         SIPHO: That’s why I do not go anymore. It’s pointless.                    5
         THANDO: The truth does come out, and at least the families get to
                 know what happened.
         SIPHO: Their version of what happened.
         THANDO: Don’t start! Don’t start! I know how you feel about that.
                      Pause
         SIPHO: The undertaker must be on his way now.                             10
         THANDO: [as she exits]: Daddy, what did uncle Themba die of?
         SIPHO: His heart gave in, so says his wife.
        THANDO: [from the bedroom]: Why didn’t Auntie Thelma accompany
                 his body instead of Mandisa?                          14

        PERCY: There’s no jobs!
        MBONGENI. There is jobs!! Ten thousand bricks! This morning there
                   were many people at the gates standing there looking for
                   work. And you chased them away!
        PERCY: Zuluboy, you are getting cheeky, huh?
        MBONGENI: I’m not getting cheeky. It’s true.
        PERCY: Ja! I’m cutting down your salary. I think you’re getting too much.
               Ja! Ja!
        MBONGENI: The boss can’t cut salary.
        PERCY: Ek gaan dit doen! [I’m going to do it.]
        MBONGENI: That’s not showing sympathy for another man.
        PERCY: Zuluboy! Zuluboy! You sit around waiting for Morena and then
               you come and tell me about the cost of living? You talk about
               inflation? What do you know about inflation? I’ve got you here,
               just here. One more mistake, once more cheeky, and you’re
               fired.
        2.4.1      Hoekom gebruik Mbongeni en Percy hulle regte name in plaas
                   van karakterspesifieke name in Woza Albert?                       (3)

AFDELING A: 20STE EEUSE TEATERBEWEGINGS
VRAAG 1
Beantwoord hierdie vraag deur na die toneelteks wat jy bestudeer het, asook die
relevante 20ste-eeuse teaterbeweging te verwys (Teater van die Absurde, Epiese

Dui boaan jou opstel aan watter toneelteks jy bestudeer het.
Anders as ander werke in die letterkunde soos die roman en die kortverhaal, is ŉ
drama bedoel om met volle klank gehoor te word eerder as om dit self te lees.
Die skrywer van die toneelteks, bekend as ŉ dramaturg, skakel tonele met
dialoog van karakters aanmekaar om ŉ storielyn te skep wat die gehoor kan
volg …
