April 16-May 3, 2009
Written by: Duma Ndlovu
with additional materials by Ebony Jo-Ann
Directed by: Mbongeni Ngema
Sheila's Day was originally created in workshop at Crossroads in 1989 with South African artists in-residence Duma Ndlovu and Mbongeni Ngema at the Theatre. After the world premiere at Crossroads, Sheila's Day traveled internationally to Washington DC, New York, Toronto, and South Africa.
Two women have interwoven personal stories that parallel the 1960's civil rights struggles in the United States as well as apartheid in South Africa. An ensemble of artists represents the Sheilas of the world - domestic workers. Accompanied by inspiring gospel along with stirring Zulu chants Sheila's Day captures the triumphant power and spirit facing domestic workers worldwide.
