The play is set on the mudflats at Swartkops, South Africa, where an ageing coloured couple settle, having been driven from their Shanty-home by demolition men.
When Boesman and Lena was staged in London critics wrote: 'Fugard has written a great play and' it is a toughly compassionate, even funny play without a false note of pity in it.'
