SPLURGING?

Written by Zusakhe Ngqame and Lindokuhle Mdlozini and directed by Zusakhe Ngqame, the play was shown at the State Theatre between 31 October and 8 November. The call for actors to audition was in October 2024. Yolanda said the director is splurging on trips and not paying actors. "All he knows is going out on trips and not paying our money. We worked for our money and deserve to be paid,' she told ZiMoja. Another actor said she had given up. "Too many excuses, It's exhausting and when you ask for your money, you get blacklisted, so I'm just gonna keep quiet until he is ready to pay." Zusakhe did not avail himself for comment at the time of publishing.
