DANCESMOKE AND MIRRORSPresented by the Forgotten Angle Theatre CollaborativeChoreographed by Athena MazerakisWits Main Theatre11 to14 May | 20.00Duration: 60 minsTickets: www.strictlytickets.com This work begins to interrogate a series of questions: in this unstable present how can we ever know the truth of any moment? What really lies beneath each interaction? Just how fine is that line between illusion and reality and how complicit are we in buying into and maintaining the illusions around us? Smoke and Mirrors examines these issues not only thematically but also structurally in the way that it seeks to unpack the illusions of the theatrical experience and even of the dancing body.*ALL FOURSBy Stash the Suitcase CollectiveWits School of Arts Building, Room 20612 May | 21.00 and 13 May | 18.00Duration: 60 minsFreeAn exhilarating mixed-bill comprising of four works presented by young and innovative South African artists.

People slashed with machetes, body parts sold. Girls forced into sexual slavery. Babies crying their legs chopped off. Women’s breasts sliced from them before or after they are gang raped and left to die. This is the reality of the world we choose to live in. Poverty has been one of the central driving forces for rampage across our continent, ‘Rampage’ is a performance/visual art piece, utilising dance and visual images to highlight the aftermath of these devastating events. It is time for activism against ‘Rampage!’”“Someone can’t just shoot 20 to 30 bullets without any reaction from the police!”
