In a landmark year commemorating 30 years of democracy in South Africa, the National School of the Arts (NSA) proudly presents "Sho't Left Broadway" at the Gibson Kente Theatre, Soweto Theatre, from May 16 to May 19, 2024. "Sho't Left Broadway" is a captivating South African production that delves into the aspirations of a young girl named Naledi, meaning "star," who dreams of a Broadway career. Written by Tshepo Ratona and directed and choreographed by Lesego van Niekerk, this musical journey weaves together themes of dreams, legacy, and the quest for success against a backdrop of beloved South African musical repertoire. The narrative follows Naledi's pursuit of her dream role as Sarafina, juxtaposed against familial challenges and encounters with departed artists in an otherworldly waiting room. "Sho't Left Broadway" features over forty talented NSA learners who sing, dance, act, and play in the band, showcasing the school's commitment to nurturing young performing artists. Brenda Sakellarides, Artistic Director of the National School of the Arts, underscores the significance of this debut at Soweto Theatre: "The NSA seeks broader exposure to share our unique creativity with a wider audience. Performing in the Gibson Kente Theatre is a crucial step towards showcasing our talents at a national level." “To commemorate 30 years of democracy, Soweto Theatre presents "Sho't Left Broadway" in collaboration with the NSA.
