A Volpone celebration evening
Event Information
About this Event
We are thrilled to launch Volpone’s playtext as adapted by Tangle’s Artistic Director Anna Coombs alongside Amina Kadeya, a special adaptation of the Zimbabwean Jazz fusion score, originally created by the show’s Composer and Musical Director John Pfumojena for Tangle’s 2020 staging of the show.
Join us for a special evening presented by Tangle’s Chair of the Board and official Master of Ceremonies Kofi Ohene-Djan in conversation with Anna Coombs and John Pfumojena about music in African theatre, the ancient art of Mbira music, how they worked together to adapt Ben Jonson's Volpone for Tangle’s dynamic, multi-lingual African township style and how the EP and the book came to life during lockdown.
We promise our usual open, friendly and relaxed evening, as you have come to expect from our Tangle Café events.
We look forward to seeing you. Please invite your friends and spread the word.
Tickets are free but spaces are limited. Book yours soon.
