This Tony Award nominated musical is set in South Africa during the Soweto riots of 1976 and is told through the eyes of Sarafina, an ambitious schoolgirl actress-activist.  Sarafina is ashamed of her mother's acceptance of her position as a domestic servant in a white household.  Following the imprisonment of her inspirational teacher, Sarafina inspires her peers to rise up and join her in protest of the racist apartheid government.
