Lebone II - College of the Royal Bafokeng

ABOUT

Lebone II College proudly presents Sarafina! for 3 nights in the Lebone II Amphitheatre. This captivating production tells the story of young and ambitious school girl, Sarafina, who comes of age in a time of political awakening and vehement opposition to apartheid. She is motivated by her teacher to dream of a better tomorrow and ultimately inspires her classmates with her commitment to the struggle against the government. 

Sarafina! captures the story and rebellious spirit of the 1970's and 1980's youth uprisings in South Africa, which challenged the apartheid government and Bantu education, in mesmerising song and dance. It is a powerful and unforgettable production which captures the spirit of the young South Africans who perform it.
