MAMA NOMUSA – STORYTELLER

Coming up in the Mondays at Seven slot at St Clement’s in Musgrave tomorrow night (March 26) is Nomusa Xaba. A performing artist, storyteller, percussionist, educator, and social activist she is affectionately known to her audiences (mainly children and teachers) as Mama Nomusa.

Nomusa Xaba is acknowledged as a gifted and sensitive storyteller who brings her storytelling prowess to her writings. With careful prose and striking poetry her book It’s been a Long Time Coming ... is described as reading as one is listening to her. The reader becomes immersed in the story and thereby part of it.

St Clements is situated at 191 Musgrave Road on the right-hand side a short way down Musgrave after the St Thomas Road intersection. Mondays at Seven run between 19h00 and 20h00. Booking is advised on 031 202 2511. There is no cover charge but there is a donations box to support presenters.
