- Poetic Thursdays close to finale at Soweto Theatre - 15/11/2019
This platform serves as both a bucket list for most established performers in South Africa and equally as a stepping stone for the future greats and gems of South Africa.
For South Africa’s freedom month Poetic Thursdays are looking to set the stage ablaze and be one of the go-to events, as usual, they have brought about the best line up to keep up with the theme. From a performance art perspective every performance, every idea is a fight for your freedom of expression, right of reply, right of opinion and at a large scale the poet then embodies these freedoms and rights but this month will be so much more special as it connects to our national commemoration of the very freedom of South Africa.
On a monthy basis Poetic Thursdays bring about a line-up of poets and musicians dedicated to the month at hand.
Headlining this month’s show is Tribal Punq vocalist Mahogany Reerooted, Siza Nkosi, a master in creative writing with a degree from Rhodes University, published poet Xongani Maluleke, musical guest Andile Finca and awarded writer and performer Noluthandoi Buthelezi. Hosted by Poetic Justice and Combars Frican Deep.
Tickets are available through www.sowetotheatre.com and R50 at the door.
This line up is a combination of some of the country’s best writers and performers all under one roof and in celebration of one thing and one thing only: the young South African democracy.
This promises to be quiet the evening, celebrating one of the country’s most important holidays.
