MASTER satirist Pieter-Dirk Uys wowed theatre-goers on Thursday night, with his show The Echo of a Noise, which runs at Elizabeth Sneddon Theatre until 6 August.
This one-man memoir sees Pieter-Dirk Uys, opening his heart and sharing stories of his private and public life with the audience that evoke surprise, laughter and tears.
Now in his 71st year, Uys doesn’t glance back at the successes and failures that have strengthened his belief in a constant improvement of his work, but at those small signposts that throughout his life subconsciously pointed him in a right and original direction: his father Hannes Uys and his mother Helga Bassel, his grandmothers, his teachers, his passions, Sophia Loren, censorship, false eyelashes and making a noise when everyone demanded silence.
