The Market Theatre, was founded in Johannesburg in 1976 on the site of the original Johannesburg Indian Fruit Market – built in 1913. The original steel structure had been shipped from Britain and constructed on site. The steel arches and cathedral-like dome which housed the Indian Fruit Market were considered one of the most important pieces of organic architecture in South Africa. On Sundays, the main hall of the complex was used for symphony concerts During the apartheid era the theatre staged powerful protest performances that pushed the limits of the censorship laws in apartheid South Africa, earning it a reputation as the ‘Theatre of the Struggle’.
