This JOMBA! FORGING FUTURE discussion is free and open to all (booking essential through thobimaphanga@gmail.com) and will take place at the Wellington Tavern (Sneddon Theatre) on Saturday 2 September from 12 noon – 2pm. All attendees will get a free ticket to the 2.30pm matinee with Introdans.
This year’s JOMBA! FORGING FUTURES dialogue hosts a live conversation that opens dancing borders for local creators and performers. We focus on what it means to travel/tour work out of South Africa, working in international collaborations, and how we move across borders to share performance work – with a special focus on the Netherlands. This year we take the opportunity to introduce and engage the Dutch guests at this year’s festival to discuss what might be possible and available to artists who are interested in getting their work to broader audiences.
