The Hifa experience
May 12, 2013 in Entertainment

Hifa has come and gone and it is time to reflect on the show.
I made the most of this once-a-year event and took in some super shows.

By Rosie Mitchell

“… We loved Coming to Zim, a one-man story-telling act by James Carey, the American who came to adjudicate the Allied Arts Festival last year, and through his positive experiences in Zimbabwe, gained a whole new perspective and lease of life after going through some challenging times back home and losing his zest for life. This is going to run again three days next week at Reps so if you missed it be sure to see it, and our amazing country and ourselves, through a visitor’s eyes, you will be inspired!”
