Camissa Heritage Tour retraces South Africa’s colonial past and its connection to the Netherlands. We tell the story of our Indigenous communities, the 'San' and 'Khoi’, who inhabited South Africa’s landscape dating back thousands of years. These communities resisted the scourge of the settlers and refused to work for the Dutch East India Company (VOC).
This site specific performance adapted for theatre takes the audience on a route within The Castle of Good Hope and other significant sites. Through this artistic and educative project we bring an awareness to the narratives of the Indigenous People of South Africa, the history of slavery in the Cape and colonization by The Netherlands. When we remember we reconnect with who we are.
CAMISSA, place of sweet waters, its presence reminds us that water still serves as the source for cleansing and healing.
