5.00Watching Simunye: The Spirit of Africa at Victoria Falls Theatre was honestly one of the highlights of my trip. The energy, talent, and emotion from the performers were incredible from start to finish. Every song, dance, and visual told a story that made you feel completely immersed in the spirit and beauty of Africa. The atmosphere under the stars made it feel even more magical and intimate. I left feeling inspired, emotional, and so grateful to have experienced something so unique and moving. A truly unforgettable evening and absolutely worth every minute.
High energy and thoroughly enjoyable

5.00Starting with the pre-show entertainment, what a beautiful voice and range this young lady had. Very enjoyable. As for the main show, what a fantastic performance. From the set to the costumes to the dancing to the story, it was brilliant. The energy of the show was invigorating. All the performers gave it their all. Definitely would recommend going if you get the opportunity.

5.00Absolutely spectacular show. The outdoor theatre is gorgeous, but the talent of the cast was incredible. Stunning set, props, costumes and makeup. Amazing choreography and performances by all cast. I was enthralled. As a regular theatre goer, this was as good as any professional show I’ve ever seen. A fantastic night out, not to be missed.
