Living In Bokone

The footsteps of 1976 still echo through our streets.
In every dream pursued, every voice raised, and every barrier challenged, their journey continues.
The march is not over.
We are the next chapter.

Courage ignited freedom's flame. Visionaries will shape tomorrow's horizon.
Fifty years after the uprising, we ask: What transformative legacy will our generation leave? The 1976 uprising broke the chains of oppression.
In 2026, we must forge paths to a brighter future.

It's a town named after rocks?

What inspired the diamond rush in the southern hemisphere?

We live in the cradle of mankind?

A celestial walk in the Northern Cape 🌌🌠


Counting light-years, not miles

OUR CHAMPION OF THE WEEK!! Christopher Soetwater

We would to congratuate Mr Christopher Soetwater’s for his Chilldrens Programme "Come and Play" which was awarded 2nd place, receiving a prize of R20,000 at the BASA Debut Programme. This achievement is not only a testament to the power and relevance of the work, but also a reflection of the commitment to creating meaningful theatre experiences for young children.

The funding will play a vital role in enabling the programme to expand further into underserved spaces, reaching more children and creating access and opportunities where they limited. It will support the development of new preschool, deepen community engagement, and strengthen the programme’s impact as a platform for creativity and growth.

As ASSITEJ South Africa, we are proud to be associated with this inspiring project through the SEF programme. This partnership speaks to our shared vision of nurturing young voices, supporting emerging artists,and ensuring that theatre for children and young people and creative expression remain accessible, inclusive, and transformative for all.
