Live The Reality
James Ngcobo who is known for his tremendous work both on and off screen, is ready to do it again and carve footsteps that will have you following every trail - directing the writing of the gifted
Chigozie Obioma. The Fisherman is going to be a magical performance.
Siyabonga Thwala, award(s) winning and famously known on Isibaya, has been a part of a multitude of productions that have taken him into a stew of characters molding him into the perfectionist he is. Warren Masemola, also an award(s) winning actor has seen himself in feminine, strong and somewhat scary characters and he has nailed it every single time so you can expect a stellar performance.
With these three coming together to awaken Chigozie's novel, there can only be a spectacular experience that awaits you at The Market Theatre.
Expect a golden performance!
