DR. JOHN KANI | FROM SIZWE BANZI TO BLACK PANTHER. THEATRE, STRUGGLE & HOLLYWOOD.

DJ Fresh talks to comedians, sports stars, celebrities, know-it-alls and human beings about what went down this week! Dr Bonisile John Kani, OIS, OBE — actor, author, director, playwright, and a living pillar of South African theatre. From co-creating Sizwe Banzi Is Dead and The Island with Athol Fugard and Winston Ntshona, to winning a Tony on Broadway, to commanding global screens as King T'Chaka in Black Panther and the voice of Rafiki in The Lion King — Bra John's story is the story of South African storytelling itself. Art under apartheid, the price of defiance, the Market Theatre years, Nothing but the Truth, and what it means to carry a nation's memory on stage. This is one for the archives. Pull up a chair.
