Remembering Nelson Mandela in three acts
How do you mark the life of Nelson Mandela? That was the ambitious project that Michael Williams decided to take on. And now, with a good dose of jazz, traditional folk song, opera and humour you have the Mandela trilogy, part opera, part musical theatre. Focus on Africa's Kim Chakanetsa went to watch at the South Bank Centre in London, as part of the Africa Utopia Festival.
