Live performance storytelling by John Pfumojena.
Enter the world of our ancestors, where spirits roam free and tricksters abound. The stunning Zimbabwean performer and Mbira musician, John Pfumojena, takes us from the Cube to the very heart of Africa.
In Shona culture, animal stories are for grown-ups. But don't be deceived by the claws, paws and fluffy ears - like Tom & Jerry gone off-piste, these stories reflect humanity at its worst, its best, its surest, and at its most confused.
