We are Bheki Mkhwane and Ellis Pearson, a unique South African team. We have worked together for 15 years because we share a passion for the same kind of theatre. Bheki's background is in township theatre and his love for Gibson Kente's work; Ellis is rooted in the physical theatre as taught by L'Ecole Jacques le Coq in Paris. We combine these different influences and the richness of our diverse lives in a way to create our own style for which we are so well-known. We swop our stories and share our cultures in ways that mutually influence our lives and work. Because we share a love for our country and its people, we are now on a mission.

This mission is to inspire people to be positive about the transformation of South Africa and, by extension, the transformation of any country, community or business. We help people to be more open and playful, and so more creative and resourceful in their own fields. We are masters of the art of entertaining while delivering a profound and universal message. This, and our style of theatre, enables us to tour our work all over the world, including non-English speaking countries.
