- Artscape@50 – Conversations podcasts
Honouring Artscape’s 50th anniversary are our Artscape@50 – Conversations podcasts, introducing you to some of the dynamic women behind the Associated Companies at the theatre complex. We chatted to Lize Thomas,(left) Acting Artistic Director of Cape Town Opera as she took us behind the scenes. Laurence Esteve, CEO and co-founder of Zip Zap Circus (right)gave us insight into the journey of her unique circus company. Thank you to singer/songwriter Tina Schouw for allowing us to use her song ‘Beautiful Women” as the intro to this series.

- Meet the Author series
WZ Book Club invites you to the Meet the Author series as we talk to Bernedette Muthien,(left) activist, academic, feminist poet who brings us her book Rethinking Africa: Indigenous Women Re-Interpret Sothern Africa’s Pasts (Fanele) co-edited with June Bam. This book takes a deep look at ‘herstories’ through a creative, woman-focused lens. A’Eysha Kassiem (right) explores how cultural identity is shaped by memory in her novel ‘Suitcase of Memory’.

- Personal Humanity Walk
Keep the flame alive by walking with a new friend for 3km or 30 minutes (or whatever you feel up to)anywhere you like, anytime before the end of August. Take a selfie or video clip of yourselves and post it on your socials with the hashtags: #WomensHumanityWalk2021 and #Artscape50, and tags @womanzonect @artscapetheatrecentre. Add a word that symbolizes your walk and we’ll be looking out for your posts.
- EVERYWOMAN Care Bags
On Saturday 21 August between 11 and 1pm our super sewers will return the finished bags to Woman Zone and we’ll fill them with the wonderful goodies kindly donated to us by Astron Energy – Pty Ltd. Our Lea Lukoji (left) has also written inspiring messages to be included in the packs. Next stop will be to deliver to Ons Plek, residential home for street girls. Watch this space!
