Description
The Blue Album is a one-woman show that merges intimate monologue and movement to stage the brutal phenomenon of corrective rape, a form of sexual violence employed by perpetrators in an attempt to discipline lesbians into socially legible performances of heterosexuality. Set in the township of Makaleng, the work follows Khumo as she revisits the spaces, relationships, and memories that mark her coming-of-age as a Black lesbian woman. Winner of the 2025 Kippies Fringe Award for outstanding performance, NAF Silver Ovation Award winner and Naledi Nomination for Best production in fringe.
