Hoort

With Stephanie Baartman(voice), Janine Neethling(piano)

A semi-autobiographical cabaret that tells the story of Stephanie, the daughter of two pastors, as she searches for her place in the world amid her mixed heritage and our complex history. With humour, pathos, and a blend of koortjies, ghoema, jazz, and original Afrikaans compositions, she comes to realise that fitting in is one thing, but belonging is something else entirely. Stephanie will make you see your own story with fresh eyes.
