ANGINA MONOLOGUES

THE STORY OF THREE VERY DIFFERENT WOMEN FINDING COURAGE, LOVE, AND COMPASSION IN THE MOST UNLIKELY PLACES, THIS NARRATIVE FOLLOWS MEDICAL INTERNS AS THEY WORK IN A RURAL SOUTH AFRICAN HOSPITAL. SPOILED RACHEL STRUGGLES TO ESTABLISH HER INDEPENDENCE AND LEARNS TO LOVE ACROSS THE CULTURAL DIVIDE; CONSERVATIVE SEEMA ATTEMPTS TO END A RELATIONSHIP THAT HAS BECOME INCREASINGLY ABUSIVE; AND STREET-SAVVY NOMSA FINALLY ACCEPTS A PAST THAT SHE HAS SPENT A LIFETIME DENYING. COPING WITH ROGUE SNAKES, GANG ASSASSINATIONS, AND THE PUBLIC'S DENIAL OF AIDS, THESE WOMEN DEMONSTRATE WHAT IT TAKES TO BE A DOCTOR IN SOUTH AFRICA.
