Atandwa Kani News

Taking in the sites and sounds of Cape Town, SUITS star Gabriel Macht, better known as Harvey Specter, was spotted snapping a photograph at the Baxter Theatre with actor Atandwa Kani after Kani's performance in SIZWE BANZI IS DEAD. 

From South Africa's acclaimed Market Theatre, the intensely funny and poignant Sizwe Banzi is Dead starts tonight, February 25 at Syracuse Stage. In this award-winning classic about the universal struggle for human dignity, a black man in apartheid-era South Africa tries to overcome oppressive work regulations to support his family. Co-creator John Kani performed in the original production and won the 1975 Tony Award for Best Actor. Now, 40 years later, Kani directs his son, Atandwa Kani, in this new international production. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast onstage below!

Intensely funny and poignant, Sizwe tells the tale of a black man in apartheid-era South Africa who is trying to overcome restrictive work regulations in order to support his family.
