#TsaMmuNewWritingFestival
—MEET THE PRODUCTION TEAM—
It's one thing having the idea of the TsaMmu New Writing Festival but to execute it is another. Enter these 5 individuals, with their minds set on giving a different online experience which serves both the imagination of the audiences and spotlights the work done by each writer in the TsaMmu Playwrighting Program.

From the TsaMmu side founder, Omphile Molusi @omphilemolusi bringing in the vision, championing the notes, feedback and getting the directors in record time. Chris Djuma @chrisdjuma_ , project co-ordination ensuring communication between the Directors, TsaMmu and the Market Laboratory as well as marketing and content creation. Pitsi Moyaha @pitsiafrica the Social Media planner ensuring that the social media streets are well aware of what is happening.

From the Market Laboratory, Roberto Pombo @robaby_sa project coordination, ensuring that each director has a team of 2nd year Lab students, the recording logistics, creating the hosting site and posting the episodes, voice over work as well as editing and quality control. Khanyisile Zwane @khanyi_c_zwane , heading the press team on this project , marketing and social media planning as well as documenting the process and granting the audiences a behind the scenes look at the process, as well as being the welcoming and farewell voice of the Festival.

The cliché rings true, team work makes the dream work. Thank you all for your hard work.

—MEET THE FACILITATORS—

Starting in a physical classroom and ending up in the Zoom classroom, both Monde Mayephu of writing Level 1 and Monageng Vice Motshabi of writing level 3 ensured that despite the obstacles brought with the pandemic, that the journey commenced with the writers met a successful end.
Thank you for your time, guidance and knowledge on this journey with these emerging writers.

#TsaMmuNewWritingFestival —MEET THE DIRECTORS— $#TsaMmuNewWritingFestival —MEET THE DIRECTORS— At the heart of the TsaMmu Playwrighting Festival is collaboration. TsaMmu Theatre put out a call to collaborate with these 9 directors. This year due to the pandemic a new approach was needed, moving away from the live staged plays to a radio play format. In collaboration with the Market Theatre Laboratory 2nd year students each director was tasked to create a 10 min audio experience from the 14 original works. In listening to all 14 plays we are indeed so thankful you all said YES to this new way of playing and are grateful for taking our imaginations on a great ride for the past 8 days. {swipe} Thank you: Aalliyah Matintela @aalliyah_luu Lereko Mfono @lerekomfono Siphesihle Fakude @sipholesihle_craft Siphumeze Kundayi @ithongomusings Thabiso Rammala @thabisotrammala Dintshitile Mashile @dintshitile_ Sibahle Mangena @sba_4ro Ncumisa Ndimeni @ncumzndimeni Themba Mkhoma #TsaMmuAudioExperience #MarketTheatreLaboratory$

—MEET THE PLAYWRIGHTS—

Non-Choices
Written by Unathi Mahlati
Directed by Aaliyah Matintela

Non-choices centres on a relationship between Nakekela, a successful Senior Researcher at an international NGO, and her unemployed sister, Zenzele — and questions if survival at the expense of the poor is justified.
As the scene unfolds, the audience is taken on a tumultuous journey riddled with distrust, with both sisters failing to see each other’s perspective. The scene also subtly explores the idea of choice in a capitalist society — is a choice still a choice if it is the only option?
Furthermore, the short piece makes an intentional effort to highlight, through one of the sisters, the agency of people whose voices are “deliberately silenced”.

Voice Actors: Scout Fynn, Mnqobi Molefe and Siphesihle Fakude
