Bongani Bingwa speaks to Dr Jane Mufamadi, CEO of Freedom Park, about the upcoming Ungasali Annual Storytelling Festival taking place at the South African State Theatre in Tshwane. Now in its 13th year, the festival celebrates the rich tradition of African oral storytelling and its role in preserving culture, history and identity. This year’s theme, “Echoes of Tomorrow: Stories Shaping the Future,” places a strong focus on young people, with more than 1,000 learners from schools across the Tshwane District expected to attend. The event highlights storytelling not only as a form of entertainment, but also as an important part of heritage and a potential pathway into the creative industries for the next generation of storytellers.
