The show, originally called The Warrior, uses pastiches of a variety of South African indigenous musical styles. ProductionsThe show, which starred Margaret Singana, enjoyed major success in South Africa and Nigeria, and toured Europe, the United States, Canada and Australia to critical acclaim. It played in the West End at Her Majesty's Theatre and on Broadway at the Harkness Theatre.[1] The latter production attracted protests from groups who believed that the show gave a false impression of life in South Africa.[2] Awards and nominationsOriginal London production
