In commemoration of Woman's Month, the CYPHER proudly presents "Imbewu Yesini".
Through poetry and theatre, this showcase journeys through our gendered experiences, questioning the narratives and expectations assigned to us as women and men. "Imbewu Yesini" bears witness to the wounds that have come to separate us. It interrogates our Westernised understanding of 'gender', dismantles it, and reenvisions our path forward. "Imbewu Yesini" celebrates our power to shed worn petals and plant of new seeds, to cultivate a new society.
