Fugard, Athol 1932–

Fugard is a South African dramatist. His plays feature a small cast of characters whose minds he probes. Although Fugard depicts lives of desolation and ennui, he is most concerned with apartheid and its consequences. He collaborated with John Kani and Winston Ntshona on three of his most recent works, The Island, Sizwe Bansi Is Dead, and Statements after an Arrest under the Immorality Act.
