Description

Missing is the story of robert Khalipa, an AnC cadre living in exile, who is very senior in the movement but is left out of the negotiations and almost forgotten in sweden. robert has a wealthy swedish wife, Anna, and a daughter who is a practising doctor in a hospital in stockholm. there is also robert’s protégé Peter tshabalala, junior to robert yet Peter gets the call to return to south African to join the democratic government.

What follows is a story of conspiracies, lies, back stabbing and disappointments. robert and his family are faced with the challenges of a south Africa that has changed radically from the one he remembers from more than thirty years ago. the government, in his opinion, does not uphold the principles enshrined in the Freedom Charter. there is also confl ict within his own family. their love is tested to breaking point and diffi cult decisions have to be made by every individual.

As with Kani’s very successful previous play, Nothing but the Truth, Missing explores the ambiguities of freedom and of personal commitment.
