KICKING-OFF the December holiday fun at the Playhouse is an authentic African magical experience this festive season. The Playhouse Company’s Actors Studio and Playhouse Dance Residency are all set to take you on a magical journey into the wonderful world of storytelling.
Directed by Warona Seane, Our Story Magic is a collection of stories set in an African mystical garden. Using dance, song and storytelling, the audience will experience a beautiful retelling and bringing-to-life of some of Dr. Gcina Mhlophe’s magical writing from her collection of African Folk Stories.
Packed with widely resonating stories Our Story Magic offers a lasting and interactive theatrical experience. The cast has proven to be a hit with the younger crowd, as has been the experience in our past school’s programmes, such as My Body & I which left kids entertained and well informed with pertinent life messages. This highly entertaining and interactive production will not only be aimed at teaching children values of Ubuntu but will cater for an entire family experience.
