MADE IN BOTSWANA is a production celebrating the everyday life and culture of Botswana. This will comprise of a collection of Setswana songs that speak of the Setswana way of life including dramatic depiction of a traditional Setswana wedding, contemporary religious expression, and a song celebrating traditional values, including messages on topical issues such as HIV AIDS etc. All these songs have been stringed together into one act and one story will be enacted out in costumes by the group (all in song). The stage will be turned into a set depicting a typical village. This type of performance will be a first for Botswana. Sedibeng is diversifying choral music and blending it with theatre.
