A Womantide Rising at the Baxter Concert Hall in Cape Town

Womantide can be that evening in Cape Town you never expected to have, and will never forget.

Legendary Cape Town singer/musician and songwriter Tina Schouw, Moodphase5ive diva Ernestine "Ernie" Dean and well-known writer/ performance poet Malika Ndlovu are pooling their talents to create a brand new performance of their original material. Produced in collaboration with The Mothertongue Project, Womantide is an anthem to life and the resilience of humanity in the face of great adversity.

This trio of gifted women artists use their voices to honour the human spirit. "The show is a meeting of our parallel paths, merging our perspectives on life through our words, music and womanness," says Tina. "It's a magical synergy," choruses Ernie. Womantide is a particularly joyful performance since Tina, Ernie and Malika as independent artists have long been admirers each other's work.

"I think that gratitude is a core ingredient that motivates us as individuals and permeates the process of making this offering to our audiences. It's a gift of appreciation. I feel extremely blessed to do the work that I love, but also to be able to publicly put an emphasis in what we as human beings can do with what we have, rather than our suffering or what we lack," says Malika.
