BLING!

Event information

Following a successful and critically acclaimed European run, Buhle Ngaba brings her critically acclaimed show, 'BLING!', back to South African stages.

Drawing on the story of the Cullinan diamond, the production delicately and hilariously works its way through South Africa's journey towards democracy, dealing with topics such as the repatriation of historical artefacts, the nature of wealth, luxury and "selling out".

Despite ongoing calls for its return, the Cullinan Diamond remains in British possession. This production personifies the historical gem as the charismatic Phatsima Khullinan – a diamond with a dream and a mission.
