AN ENSEMBLE’S season at York Theatre Royal has been cancelled due to the coronavirus outbreak.
The award-winning South African Isango Ensemble was due to perform at the Theatre over a three week period.
Executive Director, Tom Bird, said: “We are devastated that our friends Isango Ensemble are unable to make the trip to the UK.
“We hope there will be another opportunity in the future.”
The company, which draws performers mainly from the Cape Town townships, was programmed to perform three shows from its repertoire.
Ticket holders will be contacted by Box Office in coming weeks.
