When we Awake

First Developed with Andrew Buckland and Mncedisi Shabangu under the direction of Nwabisa Plaatjie and now performed by Nolufefe Ntshuntshe and Sisipho Mbopa the piece grapples with #MenareTrash, #Metoo, #AmInext, through a story about two sisters haunted by the loss of their older sister Notea. Their mother told them she was told that Notea drowned in a pot of porridge. Their grandmother, however, told them a different story but was never honest about what exactly happened to uNotea.

As violence against women and children gets worse Thembeka considers the things that happened to her older sister while Thobeka, reminds her of the story their grandmother told them.
