A satirical and physical exploitation, Operation Mzami looks at today’s legal and illegal mining world in the political landscape of the African diaspora, exploring how the gold, stolen from the land, benefited colonisers, while the natives still continue to suffer under this corrupt system.
Operation Mzami is part of the work that graduates from the 2023 Market Theatre Laboratory.
