Important Update: James Bay South African Tour Postponed to 2026
Presented by The Market Theatre in partnership with Suidoosterfees; supported by NATi
The non-racial project is put under the spotlight as four characters – Prof. Simon Whitehead, his ‘coloured’ lover Dr. Angela Witten, their Zimbabwean colleague Prof. Emmanuel Kabwato, and student leader Noluthando Kakaza – clash in this explosive new play by Mike van Graan. Directed by Greg Homann, the Market Theatre’s artistic director, this edgy drama is set in 2016. Zuma is in power, corruption is rife, and the born-free students are on the march. This bold premiere production is both a searing critique and a call for reflection.

Emmanuel Kabwato, en die studenteleier Noluthando Kakaza – met mekaar bots in Mike van Graan se kragtige nuwe drama. Greg Homann, die Markteater se artistieke direkteur, is in die regisseurstoel van dié stuk wat in 2016 afspeel. Zuma is aan bewind, korrupsie vier hoogty en die born frees hou studenteoptogte. Hierdie première lewer striemende kommentaar en stem tot nadenke.
