Destiny

  • Theatre
  • Entertainment

Written by and starring award-winning South African-born actor and playwright Kirsty Marillier and directed by Zindzi Okenyo (Is God Is), Destiny is an intimate drama of allure and loyalty set against the canvas of world-changing events. A family drama, it serves as a potent reminder that the past is always with us.

Buoyed by the spirit of social revolution that came to a head in the 1970s, this world premiere captures the era’s music, fashion and sense of freedom in a fierce, funny, and unforgettable tale.
