The future we envision
We are developing and empowering rural arts and artists especially women performers in Theatre and Dance by giving them access to participate in programmes of development like workshops on production, arts business as well as performance.

THE RIVONIA TRIAL
The Rivonia Trial was a landmark trial in South Africa’s history that took place between 1963 and 1964. It involved the arrest and prosecution of 12 members of the African National Congress (ANC) for sabotage and attempting to overthrow the apartheid government. The trial is considered to have set off a chain of events that led to the end of apartheid.
