In August and September, Cosmos Productions teamed up with Project 90 to take Joyce’s Choices, a climate change themed show, on tour to schools in the Eastern and Western Cape. One of the show’s actors Fundi Zwane, is also an up and coming star of the SABC hit soapie Generations. She speaks to Cape Town Clubs coordinator Daniel Robinson about the Theatre for Change tour, fame and her views on Climate Change.
Project 90x2030 has partnered with Cosmos Productions to take the innovative climate change play, Joyce’s Choices, to learners around the Eastern Cape. The show was performed 15 times for around 2 146 high school learners. The play follows Joyce and the environmental choices she makes every day into the future: a hot, hot place where winter ceases to exist and water restrictions are commonplace. The play aims to raise awareness of climate change issues amongst high school learners and educators while inspiring them to take action, to create change in their lives and the lives of others. The play touches on humanity’s attachment to a consumer culture and how this is impacting adversely on our environment.
Daniel, our Western Cape clubs coordinator, went to Grahamstown to perform in Paraphernalia - a theatre show about consumerism - and got rave reviews!
