The text tells the story of how Christ ("Morena") visits [[apartheid]] South Africa, where he is introduced to the lives of ordinary people under the system, and does so by means of powerful mimicry and multiple characterizations by the two performers. In many ways the prototype for, and still one of the very best and most popular, examples of the new improvisational political theatre of the 1980s. An iconic political work, it was not only controversial, but influenced the nature of political theatre-making and the style and careers of a large number of writers and performers, and set up the careers of Mtwa and particularly Ngema as writer/theatre-makers. | The text tells the story of how Christ ("Morena") visits [[apartheid]] South Africa, where he is introduced to the lives of ordinary people under the system, and does so by means of powerful mimicry and multiple characterizations by the two performers.

Woza Albert! ("Arise, Albert!") is an improvised political play by Percy Mtwa (1953-), Mbongeni Ngema (1955-2024) and Barney Simon (1932-1995).
Contents
The original text
A full length play devised and improvised by Mtwa and Ngema, who had formed The Earth Players to do so, and facilitated and refined with the help of director/playwright Barney Simon, whom they had invited to help.
The text tells the story of how Christ ("Morena") visits apartheid South Africa, where he is introduced to the lives of ordinary people under the system, and does so by means of powerful mimicry and multiple characterizations by the two performers. In many ways the prototype for, and still one of the very best and most popular, examples of the new improvisational political theatre of the 1980s. An iconic political work, it was not only controversial, but influenced the nature of political theatre-making and the style and careers of a large number of writers and performers, and set up the careers of Mtwa and particularly Ngema as writer/theatre-makers.
The text was first published 1983 by Methuen Publishers, and re-published a number of times since, in 2009 with a new Foreword and notes by Yvette Hutchison and in 2018 with a foreword and notes by Temple Hauptfleisch.
The text has become and one of the most anthologised and produced of all South African plays and a regular prescribed work for study and performance at school and university since the late 1980s.
The play has been published in the following collections:
