Synopsis
The Bunker is a centre for joy, a space for hope, a meeting place. Inside, an underground collective of artists tell stories through live music, dance and song. Outside, this is forbidden. Scored by the Zimbabwe Mbira and Marimba instruments; Bunker of Zion is a defiant celebration of colour and culture in a hostile world.
Bunker of Zion was devised by John Pfumojena, with Tawanda Mapanda, Niyi Akin and the Company.
