About Event

By Fumbani Innot Phiri A Dance Musical Theatre Reflecting Issues of Mental Health and Depression Synopsis In a community burdened by silence and shame, five individuals struggle with the weight of trauma, societal pressure, and personal despair. Lonjezo, a young girl trapped in a cycle of abuse, carries the painful secret of her stepfather's repeated violations. Vyezgu, desperate for intimacy, discovers her truth too late, his anger and isolation deepening. Masugzho, trapped in the rigid expectations of masculinity, battles the stigma that support is only for the weak. Ndaziona, haunted by a past scandal that refuses to fade, faces relentless judgment and suicidal thoughts. At the heart of it all is Vimbuzga, a woman cast aside by society, labeled as mad but possessing an ancient power—healing through dance. With the rhythmic pulse of the djembe drum, she weaves them into a transformative journey where movement becomes medicine, pain finds expression, and healing begins. A symphony of raw emotion, physical storytelling, and poetic justice. Through dance, music, and the power of communal rhythm, Djembe unravels the chains of depression and mental suffering, offering a path to healing, self-discovery, and liberation.
