A 'Falls' visit would not be complete without seeing this show. It was worth every dollar! - I've seen some incredible stage shows in my life - such as Les Misérables and the Phantom of the Opera in London's West End - and I honestly have to say that this show ranks right up there with them! Each actor owns their role so convincingly that I was terrified of the Kimba Tribe’s lead warrior, Ekanjo - played that night by Melusi Chitura, and mesmerised by the love story played out by Dexter Mushore (Bomani) and Charmaine Mudau (Akamai). In fact, I’m doing the entire cast somewhat of a disservice as EVERY actor was at the top of their game that night and had me on the edge of my seat the full time we were there. Well done, you talented souls. You should feel very proud of yourselves. The modest stage expanded as doors and walls magically opened, and animals and rivers appeared… it was an extraordinary show of imagination where music, singing and dance came together like nothing I’d ever seen before. I won’t give the game away but something wonderfully immersive happens at the end of the show too that I’ve never experienced as an audience member before - which will stay with me forever. I absolutely loved visiting Zimbabwe and this for me, was one of the many highlights. If you go to Vic Falls do yourself a huge favour and go see this World-Class Performance. Your future self will thank you.

True African Art and Talent - My partner and I had the opportunity to attend this exquisite evening show that truly captured the essence of African culture. It was a mesmerizing showcase filled with pure African talent that shone through every performance. The dynamic energy radiated by the performers, combined with their creativity, made it an unforgettable experience. The show highlighted the unity and spirit of togetherness, aptly reflected by the word "Simunye," which means "We are one." The entire production was nothing short of amazing, leaving such a lasting impression that I would not hesitate to attend again.

Simunye - not to be missed! - Saw this stunning theatre production about a week ago, it was nothing short of incredible! The Simunye dancers were energetic and absolutely fantastic, with the performers bringing so much passion and enthusiasm to every movement. The storyline was equally captivating - emotional, moving, and occasionally funny, it kept me engaged from start to finish. The venue itself was just as impressive, with beautiful décor and a smart, comfortable seating arrangement that made the experience all the more enjoyable. After the show, I had the wonderful opportunity to take pictures with the talented cast, which truly added a personal touch to the experience. This production is a must-see for anyone looking for a night of entertainment in the amazing adventure filled town of Victoria Falls, emotion, and incredible talent! Well done to the cast on making it come alive - Simunye : We are one!!!

Amazing Simunye show - We arrived ahead of time and waited to be seated. When the time for the show arrived we were ushered in. This was by far the highlight of our trip. The show was well organised and exhilarating. The sound and performance were superb. The cast did well to keep us engaged and entertained. Will definitely return to watch this show. Best activity in Victoria falls.
