Chantal Snyman, Thobani Mbhele, Gisele Turner and Mandla BiyelaThe Green Revolution! is an exciting new eco-production from the Arley’s Workshop stable. Directed by Gisele Turner who scripted and devised the production with Chantal Snyman, The Green Revolution! features three talented local artists. Experienced actress Chantal Snyman is joined by DUT graduates Thobani Mbhele and Mandla Biyela and these versatile performers act, dance, sing, rap and operate a variety of zany props and puppets.

With gumboot rhythms as a base for a call & response rap, a moving tale of the First People's Walk Out of Africa, a peep at what really happens at the land-fill site, the transformation of a community through reforestation, victorious anti-eco-villains celebrating their conquest of the world, three escapees from the Funny Farm and a wild adventure at sea tracking the endangered Blue Whale, The Green Revolution! tackles some of the most serious ecological issues in brand new ways.
