Westerford High School in Newlands recently brought the iconic South African musical District Six to life. The performance showcased the story’s enduring relevance and captured the original work’s essence. The idea for the production came from the drama teacher, Daniella Brown, who wanted to stage a local story that resonated with the diverse community of Westerford. Despite the pandemic halting rehearsals in 2020, the school persevered and delivered a stunning performance that could have comfortably played at the nearby Baxter Theatre.
