The Cry of Winnie Mandela, on stage at the Market Theatre, takes audiences on a powerful journey through history, emotion, and the unbreakable spirit of South African women.
Adapted from the acclaimed novel by poet, novelist, and essayist Njabulo S. Ndebele, The Cry of Winnie Mandela is a poignant theatrical production.
Set against the backdrop of a literary professor’s imagination, the play explores the stories of four women reflecting on a period of waiting during the absence of their men. Blending intense emotional moments with cleverly woven humour, the dynamic adaptation brings their personal narratives to life, exposing the shadows, isolation, and complexities they endured.
Through intimate, powerful conversations, the women share the profound impact of this time, navigating the depths of their longing and uncertainty, while drawing connections to the life and times of Winnie Mandela.
