Dlala Nje are bringing colour back to The Alhambra Theatre. Dlala Nje will join hands with Gordon Cook & his crew as they begin their revival of the Alhambra. Plans are underway to transform this Doornfontein gem into an exciting education-arts hub.
Only 7% of all South Africa’s learners in public schools are exposed to the Arts & Drama through classes or extra-mural activities.
By the end of 2018, the Alhambra aims to become an inner city oasis for Jozi’s kids to learn and experience the arts.
Some TLC is needed to get this iconic Theatre back to its former glory. Join Dlala Nje from 10 am to 2pm and don’t forget the following: Bright Colour Paints, Paint Brushes, Rollers and Paraffin!
