Symbolism, likewise, weighs in on What The Hunter Saw, as the playwright addresses the labelling of Soyinka as a traditionalist, and the dangers of such labelling pigeonholes people and curtails development.
‘‘People like Soyinka are able to break boundaries. They are not limiting themselves by identity. Rather than a traditionalist. I would say Soyinka is a humanist. He will discuss any subject matter and respect you for whatever you are,’’ said Adeniran. But the 40 mins production felt too brief and dense to unpack. Like a short film with the potential to become a feature film, the playwright said What The Hunter Saw is a surface scratch of what the work can become. The current production, and the initial one directed by the late Fayaman Adesewo, which highlighted more of the intersection between Soyinka and Thomas Transtromer, are minimalistic in nature to allow for easy movement of the play and cast.
