Ingrid: ‘n Flam In Die Sneeu

For the first time on stage, the intimate and impassioned love letters between Ingrid Jonker and André P. Brink come to life in Ingrid: ‘n Vlam in die Sneeu.

Presented by Scenario Productions and Die Centurion Teater, this evocative theatre production is a deeply moving journey into Jonker’s world—her poetry, her passion, and her relentless pursuit of freedom.

Lizelle Pike steps into the role of Ingrid Jonker, embodying the poet’s fiery spirit, raw emotion, and unyielding creativity. Through her performance, audiences will witness Jonker not only as a literary icon but as a woman consumed by love, longing, and artistic fervor.

Through poetry and music, Ingrid: ‘n Vlam in die Sneeu reimagines Jonker’s story, not as a conventional biography, but as an intimate portrait told through her own words. As her love affair with Brink unfolds through letters filled with passion, doubt, and longing, the production also explores her personal battles, including the deep shadows of depression that shaped her life and art.

Tickets are available online through Quicket.
