Nelson & Claire

Claire McGuinness and Nelson Musonda – From Ubuntu Academy were also Instudio. Ubuntu Academy presents an interdisciplinary performance that will tour in and around Cape Town in November, and uses crowdfunding to raise awareness and funds. The theme of the show is Tokoloshe, the stories of a little evil spirit from Zulu mythology. It will use dance, drama, music, design, film & photography to bring it alive. The cast consists of 30 young talents between the ages of 16 to 28 years old and come from Khayelitsha, Blikkiesdorp and Mitchell’s Plain. The show is planned to tour central Cape Town and the home communities of the students in November, 2013. If you would like to help or for more information contact (021) 462 5162 or go to www.ubuntuacademy.co.za
