Description

Nothing but the Truth is a story of sibling rivalry, of family secrets, of truth and reconciliation, of exile, and of freedom and democracy. "I paid for this freedom. They must never forget the little people like me--who make up the majority that has kept them in power and will still do so for a long time to come. We have dreams, too."

Winner of a Best Actor Tony Award and the author and lead actor of Nothing But The Truth, John Kani is the director of Johannesburg's Market Theatre.
