La Ronde: a provocative exploration of sex and power
Weekend Argus on Saturday
|June 07, 2025
LA RONDE is set to ignite The Baxter Studio this winter with a daring and darkly comic new production directed by Leila Henriques.
Inspired by Arthur Schnitzler’s once-censored 1897 play, this contemporary reimagining explores themes of sex, power, and longing through a chain of encounters between 10 strikingly different characters.
In a world obsessed with visibility, image and performance, this modern adaptation of La Ronde probes a world where intimacy is currency, sex is a calculated strategy and everyone is performing for someone.
Set in modern-day Cape Town, the play unfolds through the eyes of a DJ, who soundtracks each scene with music that reflects the emotional tempo of the characters’ intimate exchanges.
