== Early life ==
Rehane Abrahams grew up in the suburb of Retreat, Cape Town. She went to Livingston High School, and later graduated from the University of Cape Town's (UCT) School of Drama. As a teenager, she was involved in the anti-apartheid Struggle, but gave up this role to become an actor, and going so far as collaborating with the apartheid-era SABC. While at UCT, she started writing plays, including ''Adam's Apple'', in which she played the part of Lilith. This character was to haunt her for years as she took on a variety of erotic forms, crossing gender boundaries, and generally upsetting the South African establishment. Abrahams was thus a bit of a Mata Hari working for both sides during the civil conflict which ended in 1994.
From her work in the ''femme fatale'' Marathon of ''Shots in the Dark'' performed at the Black Sun, to the grunge queen of ''Wider Than This'' and post-porn overtones of ''Fresh Wounds'' (Abrahams/Braham). Abrahams work is affected by her having grown up in a "colored" group area, and her experience of segregation -- the system of apartheid that kept people of all races, apart. She was classified Cape Malay by the government, a label she still uses in her writing.
