Woza Albert! is a groundbreaking two-man show that reimagines the Second Coming of Jesus Christ in present-day South Africa. First performed at the Market Theatre in Johannesburg, this innovative production took the Edinburgh Festival and London by storm in 1982, earning standing ovations every night.
The show was also seen in Berlin, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, Philadelphia, and on BBC TV twice, cementing its reputation as a bold and thought-provoking work of drama. This edition features a new introduction by Yvette Hutchison, providing further insight into this remarkable production.
