THEATRE: Cape Town's Magnet Theatre comes to London

Camilla Hibbert — Fri, 05 Feb 2010 11:43:00 GMT

Every Year, Every Day, I am Walking...

Oval House Theatre, in association with SA Times, is bringing to London an internationally acclaimed show by the award-winning Magnet Theatre from Cape Town, South Africa.

Every Year, Every Day, I Am Walking is a piece about dislocation, about what home means. It explores what it means to lose the safety and security of home as a result of war and the consequences of that irrevocable loss in the life of a young girl.

It traces the story of a young girl who loses family and home brutally and irrevocably and is forced to journey to a new place through many dangers and uncertainties. An uplifting piece of theatre that celebrates the ability of human beings to heal through the power of the imagination.

Date: 24 Feb – 13 March

Where: Oval House Theatre, Kennington Oval, SE11

Tickets: £12 each

*TNT & SA Times Readers, get 2 tickets for the price of 1, quote SA Times/ TNT: Call 020 7582 7680 (Limited offer, subject to availability)*

This year's Bilbao BBK festival looks set to be a corker.

The festival takes place on the 8/9/10th July near Pamplona, Spain and co-incides with Running of the Bulls, making it the natural next stop in the festival circuit.

Paul Weller, Alice in Chains, Skunk Anansie, Gogol Bordello, Dropkick Murphys and Volbeat have been added to the line-up of the 5th edition of the festival due to take place from the 8th- 10th July.

Having already confirmed Rammstein headlining on Thursday, Pearl Jam on Friday, Manic Street Preachers as special guests, plus Slayer, Bullet for my Valentine, Rise Against, Jet, Coheed and Cambria, Rise to Fall and Capsula, few will disagree that once again Bilbao BBK Live offers one of the strongest line-ups across the European festival circuit.
