Cape Town Edge

Cape Town Edge is a collective of professional independent theatre companies and/or theatre makers.

Initiated by FTHK (from the hip: khulumakahle) and Hearts & Eyes Theatre Collective, it was formed in 2007 to overcome some of the difficulties small scale independent theatre companies face when presenting work at festivals and venues around South Africa. 

Within this, the emphasis shifts from individual companies/productions to a collective venture that enhances the value and impact of each production under an umbrella structure.  This significantly promotes Cape Town independent theatre by pooling resources in terms of pre-production, funding, administration, co-ordination, transport, technical needs, and taking care of that vital ingredient – the audience.
