RECAP
Thanks to the big crowd that came out last Thursday for "Lamentations @ 12", a stage play written by Gertrude Munhamo that casts a harsh light on some of the darkest moments in Zimbabwe's liberation history, through the perspective of young girls who witnessed and survived brutality and loss. Filled with song, dance, emotion, and humour, the play was a searing portrait of humanity in the face of violence and struggle.
We also greatly enjoyed the workshop led by the Zimbabwean theatre professionals. More than 20 Tanzanian actors and dancers participated in the workshop, learning Zimbabwean dances and teaching Tanzanian ones. The workshop resulted in a 10-minute one act play that was written and performed by all of the participants. Hongerini wote!
