Bhekizizwe

  • Torch Theatre Milford Haven SA73 2BU (map)

Themba will be playing the title role of Bhekizizwe, as well as multiple other characters, in this operatic monodrama for Opera Ddraig. Directed by Benjamin Davis and conducted by Robert Fokkens, the composer.

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.
