The Market Theatre presents Sizwe Banzi is Dead from 21 Jun- 24 Jun 2011. The director is Monageng Vice Motshabi and the actors are Arthur Molepo and Omphile Molusi.
"Motshabiās interpretation of this timeless play puts an emphasis on the issue of identity which today remains relevant, much as it did many years ago. āThe issue of survival portrayed in the play goes into matters of identity. Names are very important to black people. For Sizwe, he reflects on whether he will actually connect with his ancestors if he is now called something else. The play therefore attempts to explore the question āIs being a man connected to a name or a functional role a man has to takeā, said Motshabi."
