Ama-Piece – Piece – Nyana

25 - 26 May 2019 Ramolao Makhene Theatre

J. Bobs Live will premiere his new show at the Market Theatre for three days only 24 - 26 May 2019. The production is a bridge between straight theatre and a fascinating multi-disciplinary production that will infuse elements of a game show.

J. Bobs is an established artist who is known for his popular sketches and a style that allows him to experiment with material that is not mainstream. His new and exciting multi-disciplinary work will showcase a new cultural wave of interactive theatre that is intended to inspire a new generation of artists.

He has chosen the Market Theatre Laboratory as a beneficiary for the premiere of his new work, Sort-Of-Kind-Of-Like-Academic-Ish-Nyana-So-Yabo?

“I recognize the role that the Market Theatre Laboratory plays in empowering and developing young theatre students to harness their craft, skills and talents”, says J Bobs.

The box office proceeds from his show will go towards a bursary to cover a fulltime student’s fees for one year.

‘It takes true courage and vulnerability to chase your dreams and express your passion to the world. A career in the performance industry can be one of the most daunting realities”, he adds. “I want to play a part in making it a little easier for at least one student”.

Ungoyiki. Kuzaba robust in engagement, kuthi combust in flavourment. Kuthi Huuuu!

The Mother of all Eating (… and the looting continues!)

Zakes Mda’s satirical masterpiece set in Maseru, Lesotho (and first performed at the Sechaba Hall of the Victoria Hotel in Maseru in 1992), explores the debilitating culture of corruption and greed known as ‘eating’. A culture which has become synonymous with corrupt state officials who enrich themselves by abusing government funds.

Objects of Desire, Addendum

Objects of Desire, Addendum exists as a postscript to Mokgosi’s acclaimed, long-standing visual essay, Democratic Intuition, of which Comrades, exhibited at Stevenson, Cape Town, in 2016, was the second of eight chapters. Comprising painting and sculpture, Democratic Intuition questioned how one can approach the conceptual promises of democracy in relation to the daily lived experiences of the subjects that occupy southern Africa.
