I'm a Professor in the English Department and Director of the Tsikinya-Chaka Centre (School of Literature, Language and Media) at Wits University in Johannesburg.  

 

I research, I write, I teach: mostly at the intersection of Shakespeare and South Africa. I am lucky enough to be a part-time arts critic and occasional current affairs commentator too. 

 

This website gives a snapshot of my work and provides links to the projects, institutions and organisations I'm involved in.
