THE FUSE

Thanks to the devotion of Afrophilic sisters Ella Spira and Pietra Mello-Pittman, South Africa now has an authentic and wonderfully energetic voice on London’s West End. Following a friend’s recommendation, I booked a performance of Inala. I don’t recall feeling so fully enmeshed in the South African spirit and psyche outside the country before. It was more than a taste of home; it was home.
