Show Notes

The Playhouse Company in KwaZulu-Natal faces backlash from local artists due to significant budget cuts, including the closure of their key production warehouse. This move, driven by national funding drops and strict public finance rules, has left artists feeling blindsided and the theater scene strained. Despite a sold-out show by Thandiswa Mazwai, the company pushes forward with limited resources, seeking patience from the arts community.
