Karoo Moose is a play by the South African playwright Lara Foot Newton.
Set in a remote village in the Karoo, the play depicts the trials and tribulations of a young girl called Thozama.
In the play, the main character Thozama ends up killing a moose that is inexplicably in the middle of the Karoo, and it shows all the events that follow.
The themes of the play are present to show that in order for such a pattern of violence and the breach of innocence to end, something completely out of the ordinary/external must take place.
In 2009, the play transferred to the Tricycle Theatre in London, where it formed the first half of a mini South African season.
