Book Inala tickets at House of Sisters Grimm in London

Inala is a Grammy-nominated South African music and dance production now resident at House of Sisters Grimm in central London. Choose your date and official tickets on the British Theatre Inala tickets page.

The title means abundance of goodwill in Zulu. The show brings singing, movement and storytelling into a close-up, immersive room, with a cast of South African singer-dancers and narration by Ndaba Mandela, grandson of Nelson Mandela.

What an Inala evening feels like at House of Sisters Grimm

Performances last about 55 minutes. The venue combines the show with an onsite multimedia art gallery and the iGOLI fine wine bar, and your ticket includes entry to both. Allow time to explore before or after your reserved showtime.

Inala first premiered in 2014, with music co-composed by the late Joseph Shabalala, founder of Ladysmith Black Mambazo, and Ella Spira MBE, co-founder of Sisters Grimm, and original choreography by Mark Baldwin OBE. It has played the Royal Albert Hall, the Royal Variety Performance, Hampton Court Palace, Marina Bay Sands in Singapore and the Mandela Auditorium at Joburg Theatre. The current staging is presented as a living tribute to Shabalala, whose final international stage work this was.
