Well know for his selling out shows, theatre lovers can look forward to yet another entertaining theatre play “Baby Cloete and Sissie Kavendji” by Namibia’s own stalwart in theatre, Severius Majiedt,

The theatre play “Baby Cloete and Sissie Kavendji” takes us through the life of a 30 year old woman Baby who leaves on the streets of Windhoek and sleeps at the Wernhill Park Taxi rank in town.  As it is a habit of those leaving on the streets, Baby is no exception to alcohol abuse and begging for money.  When desperate measures call, Baby will sing for passers-by just to get a fifty cent or a one dollar if she is lucky.  

By her side is her long time boyfriend, Zobra who is a full time drinker and beggar as well.  He will occasionally join Baby singing as a “Duo” at a price of N$5, “hear it of leave it”.  They will share their bottle of Clubman with each other and fight afterwards.   

While on the street, Baby met Sissie Kavendji and her 14 year old daughter Blara who hails from Okakara.  They came to the big city in search of Blara’s father Soly Angula who left them 2 years ago with the promise of going to look for employment in order to take care of them, they never heard of him since.  Baby took them in, gave them a place to sleep and something to eat. 

Baby a tough and naughty women with connections, she organise a newspaper journalist to publish a story with the hope of finding Soly.  

The question is will they succeed in their dramatic search? And how will Soly react?
