Alongside the laughs sits a genuine tribute: the Doek Challenge, honouring the women in the room during Women’s Month, with partner prizes for the best doek drip of the night.

Leading the night as co-hosts are two of South Africa’s most recognisable comedic voices: Celeste Ntuli, one of Mzansi’s most celebrated stand-up comedians and television personalities, whose sharp, unapologetic wit and decades of stage experience have made her a household name and a fitting face for a night built around women’s stories and comedy royalty, alongside Siphelele “Pele Pele” Mchunu, the Soweto-born comedian, actor and Jozi FM breakfast host and the 2019 recipient of the Savanna Audience Choice Comedy Award. Together, Ntuli and Pele Pele bring the star power to match a bigger, better Reloaded edition of the Shutdown.

The competition will once again be adjudicated by two heavyweights of South African comedy: David Kau, one of the country’s most established stand-up comedians and a foundational figure in building platforms that launched a generation of talent, joined by Trevor Gumbi, a multi-talented performer known for his sharp, socially conscious humour, with credits spanning Blacks Only, Comedy Central Live and Oppikoppi, to name a few.

Audience members are invited to arrive wearing their stylish doek, celebrating the heritage, identity and stories carried by women. A live, in-venue activation will crown the best doek of the night, with prizes contributed by event partners.

YFM DJ FIF_LAAA will keep the energy high and set the tone for a vibrant reloaded experience.

Tickets are now available on Webtickets. Grab yours for R250 only to secure your seat at CROWNED: The Comedy Shutdown.

Contemporary Dance Experience in Durban, the acclaimed festival expands access to groundbreaking contemporary dance by bringing a selection of the JOMBA! festival’s most celebrated productions to Johannesburg audiences. The carefully curated four-night season celebrates exceptional contemporary dance.

The programme also features the inclusive masterpiece IUNGO by Adriaan Luteijn, bringing together performers of different backgrounds, generations and physical abilities in a powerful celebration of humanity, diversity and connection.

The season then honours two previous JOMBA! Legacy Artists whose work has transformed contemporary dance in South Africa and beyond.

On Friday, 11 September (4.30–6pm), Vincent Mantsoe shares his celebrated KOBA Technique, described as a “physical meditation”. Integrating traditional and contemporary dance practices, the workshop invites participants to explore identity, presence and embodied expression through Mantsoe’s internationally recognised movement philosophy.

CROWNED: THE COMEDY SHUTDOWN HITS THE MARKET THEATRE STAGE

The Market Theatre Foundation and EyeUnderM Productions, powered by the City of Joburg’s Arts Alive, present CROWNED: The Comedy Shutdown, a knockout battle.

On Friday, 7 August 2026 ahead of Women’s Day, the John Kani Theatre at the Market Theatre plays host to the event, bringing South Africa’s most established comedic voices head-to-head with its sharpest rising talent in a battle for R20,000 and the title of champion.

Produced by EyeUnderM Productions (Mzansi Comedy Nights) and Nomad Concepts, the evening is staged as part of the Market Theatre’s 50th Anniversary Programme, with the City of Johannesburg and the Market Theatre Foundation joining as presenting partners, lending the weight of one of South Africa’s most storied stages to a groundbreaking comedy format. Alongside the laughs sits a genuine tribute: the Doek Challenge, honouring the women in the room and the culture they carry expressed in their stylish doek drip.

Built as a high-energy, knockout-style comedy battle, CROWNED: The Comedy Shutdown brings together sixteen of Mzansi’s finest comedians as they compete to secure a spot in the Top Four, selected by the judges.

The four finalists will then advance to the knockout round, going head-to-head for the R20,000 grand prize. At this stage, the audience will also participate through a live clapometer to help decide the ultimate comedy champion. The winner takes all.

The line-up of 16 comedians battling for the crown includes Farieda, Shanray, Mfazomhlophe, Tsitsi Chiumya, Jacques Pienaar, KingSbuda, Dr Matthews, Thabiso Mhlongo, Emilio Tobias, Oscar Omuhle, Keketso Hutamo, Nhlanhla Shabangu, Nqobile Mahlangu, Sandile the Giraffe, Masibonge Mndende and Snatcho.

“Comedy is one of the most powerful reflections of society. It challenges, unites and gives voice to lived experiences, supporting platforms like CROWNED: The Comedy Shutdown speaks directly to the City of Johannesburg’s commitment to the arts and to the comedians who give this city its voice and its laughter. Through Arts Alive, we back the talent that keeps our creative economy alive, because a city that invests in its comedians and storytellers invests in its own culture and its own people,” says Mr Vuyisile Mshudulu, Director: Arts, Culture and Heritage in the City of Joburg.

Guiding the night as the host is Siphelele “Pele Pele” Mchunu, a Soweto-born comedian, actor and Jozi FM breakfast host with over 15 years in the industry and the 2019 recipient of the Savanna Audience Choice Comedy Award. Pele Pele is known for transforming raw, relatable and sometimes uncomfortably honest life experiences into comedy gold.

The competition will be adjudicated by two heavyweights of South African comedy; David Kau, one of the country’s most established stand-up comedians and a foundational figure in building platforms that launched a generation of talent. Joined by Trevor Gumbi, a multi-talented performer known for his sharp, socially conscious humour, with credits spanning Blacks Only, Comedy Central Live, and Oppikoppi to name a few.

“As part of our 50th Anniversary Programme, the Market Theatre continues to open its doors to diverse forms of storytelling and comedy remains a vital part of that ecosystem. CROWNED: The Comedy Shutdown is not just entertainment; it is a celebration of voice, community and the next generation of talent stepping onto a historic stage,” adds Greg Homann, Artistic Director of the Market Theatre Foundation.

Audience members are invited to arrive wearing their stylish doek, celebrating the heritage, identity and stories carried by women. A live, in-venue activation will crown the best doek of the night, with prizes contributed by event partners.

Keeping the energy high throughout the evening will be the dynamic female duo, DJ &NDee and DJ KayDaph, setting the tone for a vibrant and engaging experience.

Tickets are now available on Webtickets. Grab yours for R250 only to secure your seat at the CROWNED: The Comedy Shutdown before the battle sells out. Come ready not just to laugh, but to witness a crown being claimed.

The Annual Parade – Hey Hillbrow! Let’s Dlala! – Is Back with “Arise!”, the Cry that Alerts, Gathers, Protects and Transforms

The Annual Parade – Hey Hillbrow! Let’s Dlala! – Is Back with “Arise!”, the Cry that Alerts, Gathers, Protects and Transforms

Hey Hillbrow! Let’s Dlala! returns for its seventh iteration, presented by The Windybrow Arts Centre and Shade in collaboration with organisations and artists from Johannesburg and beyond. This year’s procession happens on 8 August 2026, on the eve of the commemoration of the 70th anniversary of the August 9, 1956 Women’s March.

The 2026 Hey Hillbrow! Let’s Dlala! iteration is themed ARISE, taking to the skies to make a declaration against the cage and in celebration of freedom. “Just as birds migrate across lands and share messages from afar, we are taking up the airspace,” states Shade’s Tamzyn Botha, curator of the parade. “This year’s theme, ARISE, looks to the seasonal journeys of birds as a provocation for freedom, communication and collective movement.”

Working with more than 350 children and young people from Hillbrow and beyond, Hey Hillbrow! Let’s Dlala! gathers handmade bird costumes, bird dances, birdsongs and street-scale imagination into a living flock. These birds are border-crossers, message-carriers, mischief-makers and freedom-dreamers. They migrate across walls, neighbours, languages, histories and streets.

According to Gerard Bester, The Market Theatre Foundation’s Head of The Windybrow Arts Centre, the Grey Go-away-bird known as the Lourie, whose sharp call warns the bushveld when danger is near, will inspire the 2026 public procession—transforming alarm into art, warning into wonder and rebellion into play. “Hey Hillbrow! Let’s Dlala! honours the power of collective voice: the cry that alerts, gathers, protects and transforms. In Hillbrow, the call becomes a chorus. The street becomes a sky. The children become birds of warning, beauty, defiance and joy.”

As hundreds of participants from local youth organisations – Dlala Nje, Shade, Dlamini Foundation, Johannesburg Society for the Blind, Innovation of Excellence, Lefika La Phodiso, Fight with Insight, MES and The Windybrow Arts Centre – flock to the streets of inner-city Jo’burg in birdlike freedom, they’ll also be paying tribute to the unbeatable spirit of the women of 1956, who marched against pass laws as cages to reclaim their freedom of movement.

In celebrating the music of freedom, the parade will end with the mighty Kebra Ethiopian Sound System.

In the lead up to the parade, The Windybrow Arts Centre has turned into a creative makerspace for all the participants. This two week multi-disciplinary, artist residency/holiday programme ranges from Textile Design with Imbali Visual Literacy, Choral Works with Sbusiso Shozi and Muzi Radebe, Physical Theatre with Philani Tenso Mahlanga and Muzi Trust, Street Art with Rivaldo Nelson, Site Specific Theatre with Gcebile Dlamini and Parade Direction with Johannesburg Mask and Movement. The sonic library made in collaboration with the participants, will inform the soundscapes curated by Jarred Parenzee and Muhammed Dawjee.

The programme also invites youth and children to shadow these artists and production teams, to co-design the works and foster intergenerational collaboration. 

Come glide, fly and flutter as we celebrate in the streets and in the skies. Join the seventh iteration of Joburg’s most anticipated parade on 8 August 2026, starting from 10am at The Windybrow Arts Centre.

Hey Hillbrow! Let’s Dlala! launched in 2017 in celebration of the possibilities that public performance brings to public space; to share energy, laughter, surprise and play. This day was inspired by the life of Joburg public art super-heroine Lesley Perkes who died in 2015 and who had dreams for this place that others have continued to manifest.

The parade would not be possible without the generous support from Ekhaya CID, Badboys Security, Hillbrow Police, Assitej South Africa, Joburg Photowalkers, Craig Maarschalk, City of Johannesburg, Department of Sport, Arts and Culture, BirdLife South Africa and our media partner, Johannesburg in Your Pocket.

ADAM’S ALE

ADAM’S ALE

ADAM’S ALE

Adam’s Ale is a powerful one-man theatrical work that explores the complexities of identity, masculinity and loss within contemporary South African society. At the heart of the story is a young man – Letswai – navigating the uncertain space between boyhood and manhood, grappling with what the rite of passage into manhood truly means and whether the expectations placed upon him align with his own understanding of himself.

The story unfolds through a series of memories, reflections and encounters that reveal the protagonist’s journey from innocence to experience. As he confronts the realities of social expectations, absent fatherhood and the pressures of manhood, he is forced to question the values and beliefs that have shaped his life. The work examines how inherited ideas of masculinity can both empower and imprison individuals, while also highlighting the resilience required to break cycles of trauma and silence.

Adam’s Ale is written by Mxolisi Masilela, directed by Banele Yengeni and performed by Kgwadi Tshwarelo Selolo.

UNTITLED DEEDS

UNTITLED DEEDS

In a desolate land built from tin cans and plastic scraps, survival is a daily act of resistance. There is no water, electricity or any promise of service or care. Only the Law: a merciless system that forces citizens to move endlessly, evicted from one settlement to the next without reason or warning.

At the centre of this world is a family constantly on the run. Each time they build a fragile sense of home, the law arrives to tear it apart, declaring the land forbidden and the people illegal. Homes are dismantled overnight, memories left behind among rusted metal and melting plastic.

As eviction after eviction erodes their dignity and hope, the family begins to question whether the law is meant to control land or to erase the people who live on it. In a world designed to keep its citizens rootless and silent, their struggle becomes a quiet rebellion: the fight to belong, to stay and to exist.

Untitled Deeds is written and directed by Abednigo Moruti Dhlamini.

TX Theatre at The Market 2026

TX Theatre at The Market 2026

The Market Theatre is proud to host the second season of Tembisa Township’s TX Theatre Hub at The Market Theatre, a four-day festival running from 23 – 26 July 2026 and comprising of five compelling, thematically rich and theatrically explorative productions.

Audiences are spoilt for choice as Masai Sepuru and Isaac Sithole return with the Naledi Theatre Award-winning Dark Magic and Standard Bank Ovation Award-winning Chasing Laughter, respectively. Mxolisi Masilela’s Adam’s Ale, also a recipient of an Ovation Award, makes a debut appearance alongside Untitled Deeds by Moruti Dlamini. Solly Ramatswi’s new work, Sinking, adds more flavour to the festival buffet.

The festival comes hot off the heels of The TX Theatre Hub’s successful showcase at the National Arts Festival in Makhanda, presenting works that won the hearts of audiences.

“The first year proved that there is both an audience and a need for this platform. Returning for a second year allows us to deepen that work,” reflects The TX Theatre Hub’s Artistic Director, Mxolisi Masilela. “This partnership with The Market Theatre is about creating continuity for artists, building audiences for independent theatre, and ensuring that stories developed in townships occupy the same stages and receive the same consideration as any other work in the country. We are not simply presenting productions, we are investing in a theatrical ecosystem that values access, collaboration and artistic excellence.”

The 2026 edition also welcomes the valued support of the Department of Sport, Arts and Culture, who will be sponsoring a series of technical workshops for women in theatre. Starting from 23 July 2026 and running throughout the festival, the workshops will cover areas such as producing, directing, administration and technical. Participation in the workshops is free, but registration is necessary.

The TX Theatre Hub Walk from Tembisa to The Market Theatre that took place on Mandela Day functioned as a symbol that highlighted to township-based storytellers that there’s a pathway to present their work at a leading cultural institution such as The Market. It marked a long walk of roughly 40 kilometres for independent theatre-makers, where every step was a bold statement of faith for access to venues, funding opportunities and audience cultivation.

“Many creators in townships find it incredibly difficult to showcase their creations on big stages. So, our walk is essentially a movement of dreams, where the distance signifies the obstacles township-based storytellers continue to face when trying to bring productions to mainstream spaces. Having since walked the journey, we are bringing others on board to ‘show them the way’. To us, this is not just an exercise but a transfer of knowledge, mentorship and inspiration,” Masilela states.

Greg Homann, Artistic Director at The Market Theatre Foundation, speaks with excitement about the return of The TX Theatre following a successful inaugural run in 2025, saying this continued collaboration further affirms The Market Theatre’s commitment to community-based storytelling, amplifying voices, creating access, and blurring the lines between so-called independent spaces and mainstream platforms.

“We’re looking forward to having The TX Theatre Hub with us again. This partnership is significant to us as it brings us closer to the communities and stories often limited only by resources and access. The Market Theatre, across five historic decades, has cemented itself as a home to the South African story in its complexities. Through our continued work with The TX Theatre, we’re reassuring community theatre-makers that The Market Theatre is a space where they – and their stories – can find an artistic home.”

Don’t miss this year’s instalment of The TX Theatre Hub at The Market Theatre for award-winning, socially engaged and entertaining storytelling created with the heart, soul and authenticity of the township.

Tickets for the festival are available on Webtickets.

SINKING

In Sinking, written by Solly Ramatswi and directed by Moruti Dhlamini, a born-free revisits the memories in his blood. There are living shadows of his (great) grandmother and grandfather to aid him as he interrogates the times of apartheid. The journey starts with a remembrance of who we are – or more accurately, who our (great) grandparents were – and heads to the war zones where his grandfather disappeared. We see a name get buried when a body is not found; his absence is used as a telescope looking into the past and the future.
