This week we look at the forthcoming Park Dance #2 at the Durban Botanic Gardens.
And we take you on a tour of Maropeng Cradle of Mankind, one of eight UNESCO’s World Heritage sites.
Lliane Loots is the Artistic Director of FlatFoot Dance Company which together with the Durban Botanic Gardens are staging Park Dance #2 after a successful Park Dance #1 early in the year. Park Dance #2 sees FlatFoot Dance Company partnering with Durban’s Kathak maestro, Manesh Naharaj to celebrate the confluence of ancient and contemporary African and Indian dance. She tells us audiences love to see theatre production in an open space like a park.

Erika Sanders is the marketing manager of Maropeng Cradle of Humankind. She explains what Maropeng is about and goes through the relationship between Maropeng Cradle of Mankind and the nearby Sterkfontein Cave.
Gateway 03: King Jay
Jacob Mtshweni aka King Jay hails from Mpumalanga in South Africa. He’s a guitarist and composer. His music (Mbacanga like) has taken him to neighbouring countries such as Botswana, Lesotho, Zambia and Ivory Coast and far flung ones such as India, China and Portugal.
