Amajuba District forms part of the tour, which began in mid-July.
The message, brought to life on the stage, places the spotlight on the irresponsible behaviour of sugar daddies, also known as blessers.
It also seeks to help young women avoid falling victim to these predators.
Franki Hills, Marketing and Communications Coordinator for The Playhouse Company, explained Sugar Daddies ran successfully in 2014, reaching over 20 000 pupils.

“Sugar Daddies focuses on the current and prevalent practice of older, often married men with financial means, having very young girlfriends. These young girls often seek a way to achieve a better lifestyle, without realising the consequences and implications of their actions.”

August 1 – Duck Ponds High School at 9am; Phuzukubona High School at 12pm
