SUMMARY:NOBODY TOLD ME
DESCRIPTION:BOOK TICKETS ONLINE HERE \nA new play by Luc Albinski \nDirected by Ilina Perianova (Bulgaria) \nAssistant Director Renos Spanoudes\nSet Design Wilhelm Disbergen\nCostume Gwendi Botha-Gourley\nMusic Jeanne Zaidel-Rudolph\nChoreography Vicky Friedman\nStage Manager Erin Blieden\nStarring Liezl De Kock\, André Lötter\, Aimèe Mica Komorowsky\, Mamodibe Ramodibe\, Damon Berry\, Khuthadzo Ndou\, Dihan Keun\, Jade Scheepers\, Andile Mgeyi and Ngwedi Ramphele \nThis beautiful play is a tribute to the noble deeds of the writer’s mother\, who during World War II fought to save lives in the Warsaw Ghetto. It is not a play\, it is a hymn for those who healed others while bleeding unseen; a love song to the stubborn souls who chose duty over self. \nNobody Told Me is a requiem of laughter and gunpowder\, where devotion and delirium dance beneath the shadow of barbed wire. Halina\, physician\, mother and an unwilling saint\, clings to her white coat as if it were a second skin\, even as the world begs her to shed it. \nThis is a play for lovers of serious theatre.

It’s comedy with heart\, humour with depth\, and storytelling with absolutely no straight line. \nGet your friends\, get your tickets\, and get ready for a hilarious night of spirals\, side-quests and spectacular detours.

The festival’s glamorous awards ceremony bestows filmmakers with the prestigious Nguni Horn\, a symbol of strength and heritage\, recognising the talent that shapes and elevates African storytelling. \nThe festival celebrates the continent’s boldest voices while connecting them with industry leaders\, audiences\, and collaborators from around the world.

SUMMARY:THE OPERA SINGER
DESCRIPTION:BOOK ONLINE HERE \nThis is not just a performance — it’s an experience you will carry with you long after the lights go down. \nTheatre on the Square is thrilled to welcome back the extraordinary Fiona Ramsay and Janna Ramos-Violante in a production that has audiences leaning in\, holding their breath\, and leaving changed. \nFiona Ramsay delivers a mesmerising\, no-holds-barred performance alongside the honey-voiced Owain Rhys-Davies\, in a work that is intimate\, immersive and deceptively cinematic. The line between theatre and film blurs as you are drawn deep into the inner world of a creative soul — a life driven by obsession\, discipline and the relentless pursuit of perfection. \nThis is a rare\, unflinching look at what it truly costs to devote yourself to art. The beauty. The sacrifice. The damage. The moments no one warns you about. \nWritten and directed by Janna Ramos-Violante\, this is bold\, raw storytelling at its finest — the kind of production people talk about afterwards\, urge their friends to see\, and wish they could experience again for the first time.
