Site for the Musical CRY AFRICA
Cry Africa is a musical about Zimbabwe
It is about the thugs who
torture in the name of tyranny, and
the brave people who resist and
must eventually triumph.
Satirical and serious, funny and
dreadful. It is also about love and
daily life, which continue somehow
despite the efforts of the 'old man.'
Cry Africa! Cry Africa! Can you hear?
See Africa! See Africa! See our fear!
Those darkening skies don't
Bring sweet rain
But the smoke of violence
Fire and hatred
Cry Africa! Cry Africa! Cry again!
Feel Africa! Feel Africa! Feel our pain!
Our prayers go unanswered
Who will care?
Where is our Madiba to
Come and save us?
Can you sing?
Can you direct? Looking for something exciting and out of the ordinary?
