Dear Friends
Just 10 days away from this monumental offering to Srila Prabhupada!
🎠Bhakti Theatre presents, in honour of the 50th Anniversary of Srila Prabhupada’s visit to South Africa presents
Make Me Dance
A Dance & Poetry Drama
July 12 | 12pm & 4pm | The Playhouse
Fifty years ago, one man arrived in South Africa with a message that transcended race, fear, and division: real love knows no borders. Through dance, poetry, music, and story, we celebrate the legacy of Srila Prabhupada — and those who dared to awaken spiritually during Apartheid.
Feel. Move. Remember. This show also marks Bhakti Theatre’s 10th Anniversary! Get your tickets from Webtickets here.
