How is the festival?

This years National Arts Festival has taken people by storm. Many have travelled far and wide to see the spectacle which is ‘fest’.




“This is nice. I’ve enjoyed the outdoors a lot and I haven’t really seen any theatre.” Thozamile Douws. Festival visitor.



“We’ve been here for two days and have seen some really nice shows and some amature ones as well. A really nice production was Spitfire.” Simone and Molly. International students studying in PE.


“Hhayi, kuhamba kakuhle, siyazama nathi nje.” Zanele Hambaze, Grahamstown.


“I find this festival to be a one sided one. It’s difficult for everyone to express themselves here and only the well known are enjoying themselves. We need an innovation whereby everybody is prepared to compete.” King Zoro. Photographer, Durban.
