12/12 FESTIVAL Returns To Johannesburg Celebrating South Africa’s Official Languages
The festival at Joburg Theatre Space will feature twelve short plays, each representing one of South Africa's official languages
POPArt Theatre, in partnership with Joburg Theatre Space.com, will present the third annual 12/12 FESTIVAL, a theatrical event showcasing short-form works representing South Africa’s 12 official languages.
The festival will feature twelve original plays, each running approximately twelve minutes and performed in a different language. The works span a range of genres and styles, with an emphasis on language as a central storytelling element. The festival runs over four days, with three performances presented each day.
“The 12/12 festival is more than a celebration of diversity,” said POPArt co-founder Hayleigh Evans. “It encourages artists to make work in languages that are best for their own expression and invites audiences to engage with theatre as a visual and emotional experience.”
