Lots of good news this month - the opening of Pieter Scholtz's long-awaited Kwasuka Theatre in Greyville; the sponsorship by Nedbank of the NPO's Concerts by the Lake series, and the official launch of the Siwela Sonke Dance Theatre.

On the festival scene, order forms for the Standard Bank National Arts Festival booking kits are included in this issue. If you intend going to Grahamstown, get your kit early and book main frame tickets fast to avoid disappointment.
