“A Pandemic Pantomime”

An Online Debut Show and Fundraiser hosted by The Rainbow Academy

 


The Rainbow Academy, (NPO of Performing Arts and Business for twelve years) is proud to present the debut release of their ONLINE, self-written musical theatre production called “ A Pandemic Pantomime”. The award- winning show, written and produced by The Rainbow Academy Graduates of 2021, will be screened for the first time on the 21st of March, Human Rights Day, at 7pm.


The show is in aid of raising funds towards the sponsorship of school fees for 40 students in 2022, and features the spectacular performances of the 2021 out-going Rainbow Academy students that earned them their place as the top achievers in the London Trinity College Exams in the Western Cape.


About The show:

“A Pandemic Pantomime” unravels and breaks down the walls of what is deemed to be the REAL pandemic in South Africa: that of our generational fight against poverty, violence, xenophobia, corruption but most of all gender-based violence that plagues South African Society.


The piece makes reference to how Covid-19 was a blanket to cover and unveil these pertinent issues we face on a daily basis. As South African’s, we need to have the important conversations in order to instill action and restoration of a broken and resilient society. We must all stand up, speak up and walk towards the future.”


All funds raised go towards the sponsorship of school fees for 40 students at The Rainbow Academy in 2022.
