The British-Zimbabwean production will be set in the funky year of 1969.

The cast is from Britain and Zimbabwe, black and white as well as young and old.

The event will take place on 16th, 17th and 18th June at the residence of the British Ambassador. The performance begins in time for the sunset: at 5.30pm sharp. We ask our audience arrive early to take up their seats and to enjoy the event to the full. Warming food and drinks will be on sale and blankets available if needed – be sure to wrap up well.

Tickets are on sale from Reps Theatre (Belgravia Shopping Centre) , either in person or online via www.thespotlight.co.zw (credit cards accepted). Tickets are also available at 75 King George Rd (look for the posters) or Chisi Walk shops.

Tickets for Friday 17th and Saturday 18th June are $12. The première on Thursday 16th June is a black-tie event including mulled wine and canapés before the play and during the interval and costs $25.
