Mbongeni Ngema’s stage musical about the battle of Isandlwana returns to The Playhouse for a further short run from March 22 to 27.

The Zulu will be staged as part of the African Renaissance Annual Festival in Durban and features a 35-strong cast supported by a 13 piece band. Exhilarating choreography complements a well-arranged fusion of mbaqanga and gospel.

The hit musical has toured Europe successfully with rave reviews. It has also toured back home in South Africa and been widely accepted as an international theatre piece of high standard. After this run, the show will resume its international tour.

Tickets R50. Show times are Friday, Tuesday and Wednesday at 19h00 with two shows on Sunday at 13h00 and 18h00. Saturday’s performance is sold out. More details from Mandla Ka Nozulu on 082 337-9306.
