The Igugulethu Arts Academy under the tutelage of Tsepo Ya Rona to perform No Christmas for Us, a theatrical adaptation of Nokuzola Zoe Bikwana’s seminal text.
Speaking to Milan Kundera’s notion of ‘memory against forgetting’, No Christmas for Us seeks to provoke the ghosts of the past in order to understand better the hidden wounds of the present ‘tense’.
This adaptation employs music and storytelling as mediums in order to interrupt, disrupt and construct notions of who we were and what we could be. In many ways, No Christmas for Us seeks to remind us that the ‘repressed will always return’.
