Ratsekga production – South Africa
All the versions of this article: [English] [français]
A South African team made up of long-time friends of Les Grandes Personnes, for the most part coming from the Orange Farm (Gauteng province) and Mofolo, a Soweto neighbourhood, has reassembled a troupe of street performers and giant puppets called Ratskega Production. Many of its members participated in the adventures of SA G.U.R.U in 2008, in Giant Match, at Johannesburg and elsewhere in 2010, and some of them in the creation of the show Ancestors at Grahamstown in 2012. They form a versatile and talented team of puppeteers, dancers and musicians, set up by Adam Kgang, Mlungisi Mzingi, Sipho Methula, Isaac Sithole, Malibongwe Radebe and Peter Tobias.
