Bhekizizwe
15:30 Sun 7 Mar 2021 Festival of Voice

Sunday 15:30-16:00

Moving backwards and forwards in time, tracing the life of a South African Zulu man (from childhood during the last years of apartheid to studies and unexpected fatherhood in the UK in the early 2000s), ‘Bhekizizwe’ explores questions of identity, race, immigration, parenthood and culture. A new operatic monodrama by Robert Fokkens and Mkhululi Mabija, directed by Benjamin Davis, designed by Brad Caleb Lee and performed by baritone Themba Mvula.
