Synopsis:

Commission Continua is a powerful and affecting production. Miyambo succeeds in delivering a complex concept with care.
— Nkgopoleng Moloi, The Critter

Bright Maluleke—played by Tony Bonani Miyambo (Kafka's Ape)—is an employee who copies and archives official documents from the commissions. He does his best just to stick to his brief and ignore the content of the files—but this proves difficult when faced with all these pages giving an account of the most critical and catastrophic moments in South Africa's history. In the frugal setting of a photocopier, a microphone, and a loop station, he begins to give vent to his annoyance with South African society's struggle for real change and reconciliation.

Bonani Miyambo is terrific and deservedly gets one of the strongest ovations of the night

— Teresa Guerreiro, Culture Whisper

a devastating one-hander that emphasises how the culpability for historical and recent crimes perpetrated against the South African people has become buried under mountains of paperwork.
