“… Vuka Machel is in terms of the genre, a political play, but it cleverly uses humour to disguise its naked, and not so overt political nature and agenda. That way, it is easy to enjoy.

And the two actors (it is a two hander) are just perfect for this production, and that is why it is going to be difficult in the future to cast anyone else except Shabangu and Xolile Gama in this production. They are just so natural acting alongside each other, such that any attempt to try and cast anyone else instead of these two in the future will be almost impossible.

Watching these two actors deliver on stage with brilliance, what is essentially a political thriller clothed in humour, is an experience that has the ability to make one forget that the world is facing a pandemic. (…)

For those who could not crack the invite to this closing live performance of Vuka Machel, not to worry. The show has been recorded and will be available virtually to the public on November 1 as part of Arts Alive.”
