Acclaimed South African artist William Kentridge’s play “The Head & The Load” is almost ready for its much-awaited African debut.

“Being able to show it at home feels very important,” Kentridge told AFP of the show, which centers on African porters who, at the call of their colonial masters, hauled arms, cannons and supplies for European forces during World War I.

The production made its international debut in London in 2018 but has never been shown on African soil.
