Through the history of Zimbabwe, the position of young girls has been troublesome. Lamentations@12 shows the difficulties and hardships these girls have faced at different times. It is a sense of power that keeps them together. The extraordinary play is deeply connected to the countries' past. Internationally acclaimed director Daves Guzha produced a play that is is dark yet fresh, showing women's power. A hit in many African countries, Lamentations@12 will also be shown at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. The tour ends in the US in two months. Get there!
