Calabash...Fruuu-ish-aan...well worth the wait

We had to wait two years, but it was so worth the wait. The talent on display at this year's Calabash Festival was just amazing. The extremely gifted poets and authors, took us on breathtaking journeys that left many in awe. Their bravery to share their feelings on some very touchy topics; the awareness of the struggles many people live through daily; the vulnerability of some sharing their own hardships made the audience feel a surreal tangible connection with each presenter.
The entertainment was top class with upcoming reggae beauty Sevana, and young veteran Protoje. The real veterans of the Calabash Ensemble were amazing as well, thrilling us with comedy and an easy trip down memory lane with some great reggae classics.
Kudos to the organisers for a job well done! Two years was certainly a long time to wait but the festival did not disappoint, and I am so looking forward to 2018.
Enough talk here are the photos...
