Ellie

Ellie is die historiese verhaal van Elisabeth Doretea Cloete wie se oorspronklike naam gegee is aan die grond wat nou Springbok genoem word. Sy was nie net ’n Nama-boer nie, maar ook 'n hewige aktivis wat die eerste vroue-optog in die Namakwastreek georganiseer het. As moeder en eggenoot het sy vrou-alleen geveg teen die Britse indringers wat al hoe meer myne en land in en om Namakwaland begin beset het. 'n Roerende drama wat die onderontginde geskiedenis van 'n legende vertel. Lank leef haar storie.

Ellie is the historical story of Elisabeth Doretea Cloete whose original name was given to the area that is now called Springbok. Not only was she a Nama farmer, but also a fierce activist who organised the first women’s march in the Namaqua region. Mother and wife, she fought single-handedly against the British intruders who had already begun occupying the mines and land in and around Namaqualand. A heart-rendering drama reclaiming the history of a legend.
