‘We Do Recover’ dress rehearsal open to public
A fee of R25 is payable at the entrance. The public is encouraged to attend this educational show.
The 60 Minutes Fight Against Drug and Alcohol NPC is ready for its annual roadshow.
The purpose of these shows is to educate, empower and offer addiction-related solutions to people who are experimenting with addictive substances, their family members and encourage sobriety for those who are not yet experimenting, and hope for those who are.
“One of our short-term goals was to introduce the production to corporate companies and have it incorporated as part of the corporate’s Employee Wellness Programme,” said Brighton Hlatshwayo, director of the NPC.
“We are pleased to announce that we have successfully attained that goal with our long-standing sponsor, Sappi Saiccor enrolling this production for its employees.”
“We certainly hope that more companies will join suite as we believe that this production has a lot to offer the workforce as far as substance abuse, rehabilitation and wellness is concerned.”
The shows are done with theatre style storytelling by in-patients of The Cedars Addictions Treatment Centre.
Real life experiences are shared through the performances, entertainment pieces are done by local youth, there will be recovery testimonies and more.
The roadshow, themed ‘We Do Recover’ is scheduled for July 26 to 28 at Umkomaas Secondary School, Queensburgh Girls High School, Queensburgh High School, Umzinto Prison (the school) and Sappi Saiccor.
A dress rehearsal will be open to the public prior to the main tour and will take place at Umkomaas Primary School Hall on July 25.
A fee of R25 is payable at the entrance. The public is encouraged to attend this educational show.
