The 9th Annual Artscape Women’s Arts Festival will be celebrated from 6-9 August 2015
at the Artscape Theatre Centre. The City of Cape Town is proud of its association with
Artscape in this very important initiative and it is our wish that together we can restore
the humanity and dignity for the many festival participants and attendants. The stage
productions and activities included in the programme align with the overall theme,
Humanity, and serves to reiterate that all citizens of our beautiful city have a right to be
treated equally and with dignity.
By engaging in meaningful discussions and using the arts as the platform, let’s together
join hands to strengthen our city, country and continent where each person is free, equal
and secure!
Patricia De Lille
Executive Mayor of Cape Town

The 9th Artscape Women’s Humanity Arts Festival takes place
at Artscape Theatre Centre from 6-9 August 2015. The theme
of the festival is HUMANITY. This year we celebrate Humanity
by partnering with organisations such as The Black Sash who
celebrate their 60th anniversary and launch the latest publication
by author and long-time Black Sash member, Mary Burton. Stage productions to be showcased this year in the Artscape
Arena are Bittersoet on 31 July and 1 August. Performed and
produced by Elsabé Daneel, this English translation of the wellknown work is about five women balancing their buoyancy with
the curve balls of life.
Cold Case, on 6 & 7 August is a tribute to Dulcie September, who was assassinated in 1988 while
opening the ANC’s Paris office. This highly acclaimed work is produced and performed by actress,
Denise Newman and directed by Basil Appollis. From the 8–15 August, Henrietta with Love explores the meaning of many things in Henrietta’s life
and the one day that changed everything. A new work Written by Peter Voges for Lee-Ann van
Rooi who plays the role of Henrietta, this story resonates with that of Dulcie September’s as both
have their roots in Athlone, Cape Town and depicts the lives of Coloured women. In the Artscape Theatre, on 6 August Trapped merges visual art, sound dialogue and dance as
three artists pioneer integrated techniques with mixed abilities. The work is autobiographical and
includes well-known deaf dancer choreographer Andile Vellem and wheelchair dancer Nadine
McKenzie Appollis - a celebration of the human spirit and the ability of persons with disability,
directed by Themba Mbuli.
Ashed on 7 August, mirrors the evolution of South African citizens, looking at ourselves as a nation,
where did we come from, where we are now, and where are we heading. Die Glas Ennie Draad, on the 8th August is based on a true story from one of South Africa’s most
notorious ganglands is an on-stage demonstration of how communities are reconstructed and the
healing processes which can be achieved through dialogue. The festival programme will include a Humanity Walk commencing at the District Six Homecoming
Centre and end at Artscape. This interactive initiative gives ‘Walkers’ the opportunity to
communicate with someone they don’t know and build a bridge of dialogue.
Join us and celebrate the Women’s Humanity Arts Festival. Let’s build our communities together.

DULCIE SEPTEMBER
Dulcie September was a strong and feisty woman who threw her weight
behind the resistance movement. In an era when women were not expected
to voice their opinions, Dulcie was very vocal about the injustices of apartheid.
This led to her five year imprisonment and a further five years under banning
orders, after which she chose exile over house arrest. She continued her
work in the UK and Europe where in 1988 she was assassinated in France.
Her comrades in London and Paris fondly remember her insistence of
an Afrikaans, fish & chips Friday that became a ritual in her Paris home.
Jacqueline Derens, head of the anti apartheid movement in Paris
remembers a no-nonsense, straight talking soldier whose determination
for liberation and equality could not be swayed. As recent as May 2012
a Cape Times article about the assassinated ANC activist still had the
headline: “Who Killed Dulcie September”? Twenty-seven years after the assassination
no-one has taken responsibility for her death and speculation today is as rife as it was then. Did the five
bullets to her head come from a French mercenary? Was it the South African death squads operating in Paris?
Or as Aziz Pahad (former deputy minister of foreign affairs) said in a 2011 documentary that Dulcie was shot
because of her knowledge of nuclear military trade between South Africa and France. To this day her killers
have not been brought to book.

In May 2015 the Black Sash celebrated its 60th anniversary – sixty years of
service to South Africa and its people. For the first forty years it was an
organisation of volunteers, mainly white women opposed to apartheid, its
pass laws and its many injustices. For the most recent twenty years it has
been a professionally-managed non-profit organisation, carrying forward
the work, the vision and the values of rigorous work for human rights,
including economic and social rights, with a special focus on how such
issues affect women. Mary Burton, who been part of it in various capacities
and is currently one of its trustees, has written about the history of this
organisation, its members, its protests, and its campaigns, and how it has
contributed to building the new society.

I received a good education with both primary and high school levels. I
trained as a teacher and taught successfully as a primary school teacher
before moving to the Battswood Training School for junior school teaching
and ended my teaching career at the now defunct Hewat College of
Education. In between I was invited to join the N.A.P Festival committee in
1989 withdrawing in 2004. My portfolio was student theatre. I served on
the Fugard and CAP awards panel and was the first ever coloured person at
that time in the history of the ATKV to serve on their adjudicators panel for
schools drama.

today is an organisation of diverse South
Africans who share an appreciation of
the vision of making human rights real
and an appreciation of how policy and
administration affects people’s lives. The
Black Sash currently works in three programmes
with an emphasis on the needs of women and
children: rights-based information, education and
training; community monitoring and advocacy in
partnership. Black Sash will install a photographic

Theatre Well
The exhibition, Movie Snaps, conceptualised by visual scholar Dr Siona O’Connell
comprises photographs and installations that take us back to the years before
and during apartheid. The ‘Movie Snaps” studio that began in a building on the
edge of the Grand Parade at the start of the Second World War, provides the
photographic backdrop of Jewish families in South Africa on the one hand, and on the
other, the further annihilation and fragmentation of lives legislated through apartheid in 1948. Positioned
opposite the Cape Town General Post Office, photographers snapped thousands of Cape Town residents
going about their daily lives, continuing this practice for over forty years.

DIALOGUE WITH AUDIENCE PARTICIPATION
Date:
Time:
Venue:
8 August
13:00
Artscape Theatre
A dialogue facilitated by Dr Ruben Richards of the Ruben Richards Foundation and Dr Thaver, a Sociologist at
UWC is included in the festival programme this year. What does the gang provide that makes it so attractive
for youth? Has society failed our young people and our young men in particular? What institutional systems
do we need to put in place to ensure sustainable and safe communities particularly in marginalised spaces
such as the Cape Flats. The session is intended to be interactive and an opportunity for the audience to
‘debrief’ upon seeing the play, Die Glas ennie Draad, which is quite jarring at times. The session will be
guided sensitively and cover not only the content covered by the play but the theatrical skills and delivery
of the message. The session is intended to develop an appreciation for both the challenge of building social
cohesion and making sense of gangsterism as well as an appreciation for theatre as an art form - a powerful
medium through which to deal with a challenging societal issue.
THE RUBEN RICHARDS FOUNDATION
The Ruben Richards Foundation (RRF) was founded by Ruben Robert Richards.
The RRF aims to bring healing to traumatised communities. Ruben has conducted
peace-building seminars for leaders of criminal gangs, resulting in the longest
ceasefire in the history of gang warfare on the Cape Flats. One of the foundations
initiatives includes associating with Gantane Kusch and DMR Productions aka his
son, Daniel Richards. Die Glas Ennie Draad is an artistic expression of the work the
RRF does in traumatised communities.

THE BLACK SASH – WOMEN FOR JUSTICE AND PEACE
Authored by Mary Burton
This is the story of a remarkable organisation of mostly white,
middle-class women who became known for standing
silently in public, singly or in line, wearing a black sash and
carrying a trademark poster in protest against the injustices
of apartheid. Though they lost their first campaign – against
the disenfranchisement of ‘coloured’ voters in the mid1950s – they turned their attention to other unjust laws and
over the decades carved out a unique role for themselves,
bearing witness, developing expertise and expert
knowledge, and generally moving way ahead of the rest of
white society in campaigning , for instance, for a universal
adult franchise, for an end to capital punishment and for
legal abortion. Though harassed by the government, the
Black Sash was one of the few white organisations that
won widespread credibility and respect, both locally and
abroad, and by the 1980s had become a recognised
part of the broad movement for change in the country.
Writing from prison in 1985 to congratulate the Sash
on its 30th anniversary, Nelson Mandela said: “In spite of the immense
difficulties against which you have to operate, your voice is heard right
across the country. Even though frowned upon by some, it pricks the
conscience of others and is warmly welcomed by all good men and
women.” This uniquely South African story is written by Mary Burton,
herself a national president of the Black Sash for several years and, later,
one of the Truth and Reconciliation commissioners. With an insider’s
perspective she helps us understand what drove this group of women,
what it was like to be involved, and what lessons we can learn from the
Sash’s history.

BITTERSOET
Date: 31 July & 1 August
Time:
19:00 / 19:00
Venue:
Artscape Arena
Ticket Price:R80.00
In the nineties the much awarded playwright Deon Opperman wrote
Sweet Sorrows for the legendary actress Wilna Snyman. Bittersoet, the
Afrikaans translation by Hanli Rolfes, is produced by Elsabé Daneel who
keeps on shining as the five characters in this solo production. The
renowned director, Juanita Swanepoel, is responsible for the design
and direction. How does a handful of contrasting women balance their
buoyancy with the curve balls of life? Whether you are strong, funny or
regretful: when dealt a bad deck of cards the sweet balm lies in the quiet
triumph of healing. The comical pianist trudges along in her gown and
curlers. The solitaire player fails to control her hair and emotions. The earth mother covets her joy while
the English rose weeps for the little one she could never hold. The pioneer grandmother gallantly faces
the essence of whites and blacks living side by side on a black continent. Director, choreographer, décor,
costume and lighting design by Juanita Swanepoel.

way to present the various scenarios already in the
public domain. At the same time it is a celebration

freedom fighter who was deemed dangerous enough
to be assassinated. Cape Town critics rave about
just how Denise Newman gets under the skin of this ordinary fun loving Cape Flats young woman with a
love for dancing on week-ends. Winner of The Standard Bank Ovation Award 2014 and Adelaide Tambo
Humanitarian Award 2014. Written by Sylvia Vollenhoven and Basil Appollis, directed by Basil Appollis and

“swear by’s” and her culture. Henrietta explores the meaning of things, troubles of the mind, ginger squares,
Protea Village they now call Bishops Court, nerve pills, the war in North Africa, her favourite cerise pill box hat
with matching petals and a veil that Mrs. Castens said made her look like a pond lilly, upright and beautiful...
And about that one day that changed everything… Written by Peter Voges, directed by Sandra Temmingh,

Die Glas ennie Draad is based on a true story from one of South Africa’s
most notorious ganglands. Marlin is an active gang leader of over
3000 men and has recently survived an assassination. We journey
into the mind of violence and abuse as Marlin reveals his life-story to
‘die kopdoktor’, Rob. From the offset it is evident to Rob that Marlin
is suffering from serious mental and emotional instability. As the
situation becomes increasingly more volatile our grasp of the monster
and the man becomes blurred. Will Rob be able to leave unchanged
or will he, like his client, pay with his life? “Dis bowana in, en bowana
uit” - “Its blood to get in, and blood to get out”. Directed by Sandra Temmingh, written and performed by Daniel
Richards & Gantane Kusch, lighting design by Kieran McGregor, produced by Christie Hollander of ReVel
Productions in partnership with the Ruben Richards Foundation.

Humanity Walk
WALKING WITH WOMEN
Date:
Time:
Venue:
9 August
11:00
District Six Homecoming Centre (Museum) to Artscape
The Women of Cape Town will be taking to the
streets again this year to celebrate Women’s
Day, Sunday August 9th. Following the success
last year of WOMAN ZONE’s Women’s Humanity
Walk – this time it’s going to be even bigger and
stronger! The Walk will start at The District Six
Homecoming Centre and finish at the Artscape
Piazza where there will be music and speeches
to welcome the Walkers.
As before, prior to setting out, the Walkers will be blessed and
addressed by women leaders of different faiths organised by The
South African Faith and Family Institute. And, in keeping with
the theme of Humanity, all are invited to join in the Walk – men,
women and children, abled and differently abled – demonstrating
that women can unite the Mother City. And once again, everyone is invited to talk to
someone they don’t know along the way. In 2014 Artscape’s Marlene le Roux led the procession riding on
the back of a Harley Davidson. She’ll be travelling in style again this year – so watch this space!
Talking The Walk
The Women’s Humanity Walk will be followed at Artscape by a 3 minute OPEN MIC session where all women
will be invited to have their say. Alternatively they can write their message on a giant CLEAN SHEET – this will
then be kept as an archive of what’s on the minds of the women of Cape Town in 2015.
DISTRICT SIX HOMECOMING CENTRE
In 2002 the District Six Museum was able to purchase the Sacks Futeran building (now the
District Six Museum Homecoming Centre). The building is ideally located two blocks away
from the current Museum building. It is also located at the interface between a precinct
demarcated as the East City Precinct, and the area nominated as a National Heritage Site.
This large building has formed an important part of the history of District Six and has begun
to play an important role in its current life as well. The facility fulfills the role of being a
‘homecoming centre’ to returning families and a centre for education and memory work.
The D6M Homecoming Centre is set to become an important hub for the engagement of
visitors to the city as it has become for the communities with which the Museum works.

Stakeholders & Exhibitors
SWEAT
Sex Workers Education and Advocacy Taskforce
The SWEAT Umzekelo Drama Group will present the performance I Am A Sex Worker, on 1 August. I Am A Sex
Worker is a performance that will occupy the street (a site of countless injustices for sex workers), creatively
drawing attention to the stigma and discrimination faced by sex workers on a daily basis and revealing a side of
the City hidden to most. In Cape Town and other South African cities, sex work serves as a source of income for
numerous people and their families. Despite this prevalence, sex workers remain voiceless in a City that claims
to advocate equality - a City where continuing stigmatisation and criminalisation add to their vulnerability.
Highlighting this struggle, the Umzekelo Drama Group will enact role-plays. In keeping with the style of Theatre
of the Oppressed and Forum Theatre, interaction with the audience is integral to the performance.
SWEAT is a registered non-profit organisation based in Cape Town,
South Africa and working nationally. SWEAT was established in 1996
to deliver services to adult sex workers in the context of the HIV
epidemic. Since this time we have continued to offer services and
have also expanded our work to include human rights defence work,
advocacy for the rights of sex work as well as mobilising sex workers.
We support the decriminalisation of sex work and the recognition of
sex work as work in order to extend labour rights to sex workers.

WOMEN UNITE
Resilience, perseverance, passion and will power
are what set Nomthandazo Swaartbooi apart from
her peers. Being exposed to discrimination both
financially and professionally as a performer, Thandi
as she is affectionately called by her peers, embarked
upon a drive to fight for the recognition of women
and be treated as equal. She then decided to form a
women only group and that was how her first group
Women Unite was found in 1997. She has made great
strides nationally and internationally through dance,
instrumentals and art. Her teachings in traditional music
and dances have benefited many schools, cultural groups, universities and teachers around the world. Costume
making and beaded Items which is done by unemployed women and are sold to locals, exhibitions and trade
fair. She is now working on her Afrobix DVD which is a mix of African Dance and Aerobics. These projects were
established to develop and nurture youth and women in the skills of performance and how to play marimbas
and handmade crafts.

SOUTH AFRICAN FAITH AND FAMILY INSTITUTE (SAFFI)
The South African Faith and Family Institute (SAFFI), officially launched in 2010,
recognizes that religion plays an integral part in the eradication of gender-based
violence against women in intimate relationships and society. Our vision is to see
women, men and children live their full potential in a society free from gender
based violence where faith and justice are honoured. Our work is done through
sacred conversations, dialogues, workshops and short training courses. We also offer technical support
to religious leaders (who completed our training) and faith communities in developing denominational
or faith specific support services and material on prevention and intervention which would include faith
statement development, policies and procedural guidelines for working with victims / survivors, perpetrators
and children. We advocate for respectful partnerships and collaboration between government, gender
justice/ domestic violence service providers and the faith sector in the quest to cultivate Ubuntu in intimate
relationships, homes, places of worship and society.
South African Faith and Family Institute (SAFFI) Inaugural Consultation Meeting
with our Theological Advisory Council
In December 2014, we launched our Theological Advisory Council as part of our 16 Days of Activism
Conference at UWC. We appreciate the willingness shown by these senior and highly respected theologians,
scholars and faith leaders from diverse faiths and denominations to serve in this way to end gender-based
violence. On the 6th of August 2015 the Council will have its first consultative meeting at the Artscape
Women Humanity Arts Festival. Archbishop Emeritus Njongonkulu Ndungane, Advisory Council Patron, will
be present at this inaugural consultation meeting.
WESTERN CAPE RELIGIOUS LEADERS FORUM (WCRLF)
The Western Cape Religious Leaders Forum (WCRLF) commits itself to mobilise
religious leadership from all the major faith communities and structures to work on
issues of concern to its constituents in the Western Cape (and the City of Cape Town).
Our imperative is to act jointly together with faith communities in approaching
government and other relevant parties on issues to safeguard moral standards;
to help protect the religious rights of citizens and interests of faith communities; and through networking and
collaboration with civil society structures to address issues of concern as may arise in the Western Cape. WCRLF is
committed to the difficult work of engaging human pain with a particular emphasis on amplifying black people’s
pain in the quest to re-dress the legacy of apartheid and its lingering devastating impact on the large majority of
the South African population. In its advocacy role, the WCRLF sees itself as a symbolic religious (moral) presence,
walking alongside the voiceless, ignored and marginalized; using its influence and power in public life to develop
models of transformation and healing that does not speak on behalf of, but rather with people.

UNMUTE COMPANY
Unmute Company is based on Andile Vellem’s experience as
a dancer who is deaf. He has been dancing professionally for
more than 13 years and was part of the Remix Dance Company
for 6 of those years. Un-mute is a way of Andile finding his voice
as a choreographer, using sign language as the course of the
movement vocabulary. He has brought together performers
with different dance backgrounds to find and explore what
they would like to un-mute; feelings, perceptions, social norms,
expectations and deconstructing what society perceives as dance. Un-mute serves as a model for a more
inclusive and integrated society hence the collaboration of artists with different artistic skills and mixed-abilities.
Un-mute aims to encourage more integration and equality and communicating what Andile believes is true
collaboration and integration, sharing of skills, knowledge and stories and using art in “un-muting”.
Members of The Un-Mute Project include Andile Vellem, choreographer at Un-Mute, Nadine Mckenzie,
a qualified integrated dance teacher, Themba Mbuli, award winning choreographer/dancer/teacher and
Associate Director at Broken Borders Arts Project, Zama Sonjica, a wheelchair performer and Mpotseng

isiBaya
I’m not done yet! is the new film from documentary filmmaker Shelley Barry. The film is a tribute to artist,
activist and writer Charlene Maslamoney who passed away from cancer in 2013. Charlene was diagnosed
in 2010 with a duodenal ulcer and was treated for this for one year. A check up after this then revealed that
she had stage 4 cancer and she was given 4-6 months to live. However, she defied the odds, looked into all
alternative health options, including a healthy diet, meditation and affirmations and lived for 2 more years.
The film reflects on Charlene’s life and achievements, her strength and perseverance and the indelible mark
she has left behind. Shelley explains “ I have had no funding to make this film. It has been a labour of love.
I hope that the film will inspire people to always reach for hope, even in the most difficult circumstances.
Through her process of dying, Charlene taught many of us how to live”.
