I need help. I'm currently pursuing my MA degree, focusing on black(muted) women playwrights in post-colonial South Africa(2000-2020). So please kindly help by offering your list of black SA women playwrights so that we can pull the voices of unpublished voices into the centre.

I just want to know as an independent artist , when will one get to a point where they don’t need to write a press release to get media coverage?

“We loved Slindile Mthembu’s IGAMA? last year. This vNAF, the playwright returns with an experimental play titled Old Soul Waiting. The play highlights the split between the Western & African beliefs of the term ‘Spiritual awakening’.”- via @CreativeFeel #NAFpicks

I got to collaborate with artists who I truly appreciate for sacrificing everything to help bring the vision of this experimental piece alive. The support will be appreciated. So please join us virtually by purchasing a ticket here:https://t.co/nEqNrJTJHB

[Slindile Mthembu @SlindileYabaMth]

So this happened. I got to film another theatre play whilst #Azania is up in flames 😭🕯. This is the only strategy I have as a theatre-maker, in order to finally be seen and heard by subsidized theatre-spaces. Please re-tweet. “Old soul waiting” is coming soon @artsfestival 🎭
