Art students fill void with their talent

Theatre came to life again recently when art students from Witbank Arts Campus took to the Davi Theatre.

Their performance on Thursday, September 22 received a standing ovation.

Bongani Makama plays the role of Prince Maseko in the theatre production, ‘Music, a commune language in C Major 7’. The production took place at the Davi Theatre on Thursday, September 22.

The production, ‘Music, a commune language in C Major 7’ directed by theatre legend David van der Merwe, told the story of a company of actors of diverse cultures sharing a house. Due to a lack of funds, they had to use their living room for rehearsal purposes much to the annoyance of the director.

David, assisted by composer and musical director Boyagain Friday and choreographer Paul Steenkamp managed to bring life to theatre again.
