Immortal

Immortal is a powerful one-woman production that blends history, resilience, and deeply human storytelling in a spellbinding theatrical experience.

Premiering at #RedFest2025, this remarkable play is written by Peter Terry, directed by Sharon Spiegel Wagner, and stars the compelling Penny Wolhuter. Suitable for audiences aged 12 and up, it tells the true story of a young South African girl who survived one of the country’s worst train disasters - the 1911 Blaaukrantz river bridge collapse - and the haunting, heroic path she walked in the aftermath.

A historical drama grounded in fact and fuelled by heart, Immortal offers an unforgettable encounter with courage, loss, and survival against all odds. It is, at its core, a tribute to the endurance of the human spirit - and a story that speaks to everyone.
