The Fever

A new musical, 'Township Fever', is about to open on Broadway. Written by Mbongeni Ngema, the co-author of 'Woza Albert', it is vibrant and funny, but also quite shocking and controversial - because it goes right into the heart of the violence in South Africa. This Screenplay/Arena film explores how the musical was created and features striking extracts from it.
