Mandela, whose voice is featured in the upcoming music video, has said, “This project
embodies my grandfather Nelson Mandela’s spirit and values, inspiring young people to
create a lasting impact on the world.”
Exciting news continues to unfold as they diligently work towards relaunching their
core business activities of live shows, with the acclaimed ‘INALA – dubbed ‘a Zulu ballet’
by Joseph Shabalala, poised to become a permanent fixture in London’s West End. This
groundbreaking production, known for global critical and audience acclaim since its
World premiere in 2014 and for promoting diversity and cultural richness, will captivate
audiences with its powerful storytelling and mesmerising music, song and dance
performances. INALA features music co-written by Ladysmith Black Mambazo, Joseph
Shabalala and Ella Spira MBE and celebrates the diversity of British and South African
culture, successfully fusing diverse music and dance disciplines. The show has played
to Royalty on multiple occasions and has toured internationally to standing ovations,
including performances in China, Singapore, and the prestigious venues of London’s
West End and Royal Albert Hall. INALA’s global success and social impact programme
led to MBE awards in 2021.
