LEGACYThe place where it happens
Youth trained under professional mentors, taking devised work into streets and community venues around Bulawayo.
Cultural exchange
What we learn
We learn how political reality shapes art-making—and how theatre becomes both survival and celebration.
What we share
We share ensemble-training methods that strengthen voice, body, and collective storytelling.
