The dark space is punctuated by a woman dressed in a man’s suit. With dry sobs, with her back to the audience, she sings a Xhosa song as money jangles in her pockets. Images of political power, war, poverty, and corruption begin to spin. Known for exploring provocative themes, South-African choreographer Mamela Nyamza explores what happens when that quiet crying inside becomes sound, when ‘private’ becomes ‘public.’
