Innocence Lost | Using Theatre to Fight Human Trafficking & Protect Our Youth

Loading player...
On The Social Impact Show with Samm Marshall, we explore how the Naledi Award-winning play Innocence Lost is using the power of theatre to raise awareness about human trafficking—one of the most devastating yet preventable social issues affecting young people today.

Director Thando Msibi—an accomplished theatre-maker, spiritual healer, and teacher of deaf and hard-of-hearing children—joins us to discuss how storytelling can spark dialogue, inspire action, and help learners recognize the hidden dangers of trafficking.

The production, currently touring schools across Gauteng, not only brings critical awareness but also empowers learners to spot warning signs, start conversations at home, and know when to reach out for help.
Learn more about Innocence Lost through the National Children’s Theatre and discover how art can be a tool for social change.

Host: Sam Marshall | 919FM
