An extraordinary new company of 30 performers arrives at the Young Vic this Christmas with two world premieres, filled with the rich musical voice of South Africa - emotional, exuberant and hugely uplifting.
Discover these two classics as you have never seen them before. With modern township backgrounds, both shows are performed in the languages of South Africa and English and feature Pauline Malefane, star of the Berlin Film Festival, Golden Bear-winning film U-Carmen (2005) and most recently seen at the Young Vic in gernerations.
