GETTING TESTED

 

Presented by Njingayombuso Investment (Pty) Ltd in association with The Playhouse Company, Getting Tested is a powerful theatre production inspired by the true stories of five female dancers who meet for rehearsal, each from vastly different backgrounds but united in their pursuit of healing, identity and expression.

Through music, dance, and drama, their stories unfold, Mandisi, a bubbly soul with painful secrets; Smah, trapped by tradition; Gugu, battling privilege and illness; Nto, overcoming hate and reclaiming her voice and Matilda, embracing self-love after years of body-shaming.

This 45-minute production celebrates womanhood, resilience and transformation, drawing inspiration from the women of 1956 to the heroines of today.

Getting Tested runs from November 13 to 15, 2025, at 10h00 in The Playhouse Loft Theatre.

Tickets: R50 - R100 available at Webtickets
