NEW FESTIVAL EXPLORES PAN AFRICANISM IN THE ARTS
The inaugural Kaza Kamba Pan African Theatre Festival will be held at The Market Theatre from 14 to 17 November 2024 in Johannesburg.
This new partnership between mehlo-maya (eye-to-the-sun) and The Market Theatre will deliver a four-day festival of theatre, music, workshops, film screenings, and talks curated by Bobby Rodwell and Lesego Rampolokeng.
Seven southern African countries will be represented through the events. The objective of this cross-border festival is to invite artists from SADC countries to share creative projects and ideas, network, and strengthen ties between the countries while giving audiences an opportunity to immerse themselves in the stories of our region.
The official opening is on Thursday 14 November, beginning with an interactive Installation designed by Sne Zwane and Sankara, entitled Dear Mr Sobukwe, which will be opened by leading Pan Africanist, Daves Guzha – Zimbabwean theatre Producer and Director.
