ADVERTS TO BE SUBMITTED BY MONDAYS AT 5 P.M EDITORIAL Tshabalala Game sanctuary If you live in Bulawayo you may have driven past Tshabalala Game sanctuary many times. Here is a little history. The first recorded settlement of what is now Tshabalala Game Sanctuary came in the 1840's, with the arrival of the AmaNdebele people, led by Mzilikazi, when they settled in the environs of what is now Bulawayo. One of Mzilikazi's many wives, Fulata, came from the Swazi Clan of Tshabalala, and the family village was set up south of the present day Bulawayo under Chief Tshabalala. Fulata's son, Lobengula, is said to have been born in this village and is known to have spent some of his early years there. In 1883, after Lobengula had been appointed King, a European sailor, Fairburn Usher, having jumped his ship in Cape Town, arrived in Matabeleland. He became accepted by the people who gave him the name of Pondwene and later he married one of Lobengula's daughters and was given an extensive tract of land known as Tshabalala, on which to settle, by Lobengula. Usher lived in traditional Ndebele style with his family on the banks of the Phekwe stream and evidence of this habitation can be found in the terraces made on the stream bank where Usher made a vegetable garden and in the remains of a stone wall that formed part of his cattle pens, alongside which is his grave. It can be assumed that with the occupation of this area of land by both Chief Tshabalala and Usher that a fair amount of the indigenous woodland was utilized in the construction of villages, cattle pens and firewood. In 1897 Usher's farm was purchased from him and incorporated in the Rhodes Estate and became part of what is still known as the Sauerdale Block, Sauer having negotiated the purchase of the farms involved on behalf of Rhodes. The area of the Sauerdale Block known as Tshabalala was leased to Messrs. Hull and Betts to develop but their attempts came to an abrupt end with the Rinderpest and then the East Coast Fever epidemics, which must also have affected any wildlife in the area. Mr. Jock Brebner had arrived in Southern Rhodesia (Zimbabwe) in 1902 to work on the Rhodes Estate Research station and, in 1905, after the death of Rhodes, he was asked by the administrators of the Estate to develop the Tshabalala Section on a lifelong lease, conforming with the proviso in Rhodes Will that the farms involved were to be developed for the instruction of the people of Southern Rhodesia (Zimbabwe). For many years the farm was managed purely as a dairy farm and provided the only source of milk for the growing town of Bulawayo. Arduous bush clearing was undertaken by hand and an area of cultivation was gradually established and utilized entirely for the production of stockfeeds. In 1960 dairy operations on the farm were discontinued and the farm utilized entirely for beef production with crop production continuing to provide stockfeed. A regime of Range Management was established which included a rotational paddock system with hay mowing and controlled burning used to ensure the survival of palatable grass species and at the same time bush encroachment measures were practised. The lease given to Mr. Jock Brebner in 1905 expired in July 1978. Tshabalala was redesignated as a Game Park under the auspices of the Zimbabwe Department of National Parks and Wildlife Management. It doesn't have a lot of game, but is a useful escape from the city, and a convenient location for National Parks in their work around Bulawayo ++++ Watchdog !!

FINDING NEVERLAND Finding Neverland is the story of playwright J.M.Barrie and his relationship with the family who inspired him to create Peter Pan. Barrie [Johnnie Depp] is suffering from a complete lack of inspiration after his last play has flopped when he meets the four children of the widow Sylvia Llewelyn Davies [Kate Winslett]. He makes friends with the family, Sylvia becomes his muse and her children the source of inspiration. [Peter Pan will be shown on Thursday 21 December.] 'Pure magic'. [New York Post] 'By turns uplifting and heartbreaking, Neverland is infused with a sense of soaring wonder throughout. Peter Pan's creator has been granted the treatment he so richly deserves.' [Empire] Admission: $3.00 [free to Film members] FRIDAY 17 NOVEMBER AT 7.00 P.M. ANASTASIA. The stunning Natalia Osipova dances the title role in Kenneth MacMillan's compelling exploration of identity in the turbulent wake of the Russian Revolution. Anastasia tells the story of Anna Anderson who, following the revolution and the murder of the royal family, claimed she was the surviving Grand Duchess Anastasia. Many believed her to be an impostor; others hoped she was Anastasia, a remnant of a lost world. A powerful, psychological challenge for the lead dancer, Anastasia explores one of the great historical mysteries of the 20th century, only recently solved, and the distorting mirror of memory, time and place. 'A commanding performance from Natalia Osipova, in emotion as in execution... I salute Osipova, the entire company performance, Crowley's magnificent designs.' [The Financial Times] 'A well trodden historical path, you might say, but MacMillan manages to wring our hearts as he examines the unhappy wreck of a woman who claimed to be Anastasia, the Tsar's surviving youngest daughter.' [Express] Admission: $3.00 [free to Red Carpet members] THURSDAY 23 NOVEMBER CASABLANCA Casablanca was released on 26 November 1942. Set during World War II, the producers of Casablanca could not have known that the film would become a classic. But all these years later, the story of a man (Rick) and a woman (Ilsa) sacrificing their love to support a higher purpose (defeating the Nazis) is a timeless one. Casablanca won three Academy Awards for best picture, director and screenplay and is one of the most popular films of all time, ranked at the top of many movie critic lists. The movie and its theme song As Time Goes By have become icons in popular culture. 'A brilliant film that merits inclusion in every self-respecting film critic's top three.' [BBC.com, April 17, 2001] 'This is it. The best movie ever made.' [DVDTalk.com, January 20, 2009] 'An undisputed masterpiece and perhaps Hollywood's quintessential statement on love and romance, Casablanca has only improved with age, boasting career-defining performances from Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman.' [Rotten Tomatoes] Admission: $3.00 [free to Film members] FRIDAY 24 NOVEMBER AT 7.00 P.M. WAGNER: DAS LIEBESVERBOT Wagner for those who don't like Wagner! It's Wagner, yes, but not as you know him as Das Liebesverbot ('The Ban on Love') is a comic opera, based on Shakespeare's Measure for Measure and a world away from what was to follow. Written when he was only 22, it owes allegiance to contemporary Italian (Donizetti,and Rossini) and French models rather than German ones and its overture opens with a Mediterranean skirt swish of castanets, tambourine and triangle - the libretto translates Shakespeare's play from Venice to Palermo. There follows a 'Grand comic opera' which rarely sounds like the mature composer and has even been compared to Gilbert and Sullivan!... 'If you are expecting Wagner of "The Ring" then forget it. Think more like a Rossini without the fancy coloratura arias, or a less serious Verdi without the well known choruses or arias. But still great fun, well presented, mostly good singers and quite well acted. Very enjoyable!' [Amazon] 'This is a real treat... True, the musical style is highly derivative. There is a lot of Weber and some Rossini. Surprisingly I found the whole thing to be quite refreshingly more like Gilbert and Sullivan.' [MusicWeb International] Admission: $3.00 [free to Red Carpet members] Dinner available from 6.00 p.m. ($10.00) ++++ 3) Congratulations ++++ 4) Condolences/In Memoriam/Wreath Funds JOAN GREENLAND It is with sadness that we announce the passing of Joan on 11th November 2017 at the age of 91.

All of that unspent love gathers up in the corners of your eyes, The lump in your throat, and in that hollow part of your chest. Grief is just love with no place to go.'
