Sir Simon Rattle, Conductor Berlin Philharmonic
The greatest piece of music theatre performed as you’ve never heard it: the South African way - thirty singers, marimbas, drums and township percussion.
It’s a story about the trials of life - growing up, finding the love of your life, learning to be wise. Adventure, fairy story, comedy, drama are all set to glorious music. A delight for young and old alike, with its message of reconciliation.
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.
