Los Angeles: Whitney Houston 's epic concert in South Africa staged after President Nelson Mandela's landmark election will be hitting theater screens this fall.
Houston's performance in 1994 has been turned into a fully-remastered theatrical release called "The Concert for a New South Africa (Durban),” according to a statement Tuesday from several collaborators, including Houston's estate, Sony Music Entertainment and Trafalgar Releasing.
The limited theatrical screening will debut Oct. 23 and feature the late singer's never-before-released show from Durban, South Africa.
The project will come ahead of a new live album, "The Concert for a New South Africa (Durban),” which will be released Nov. 8.
"She loved South Africa; she loved the people, and she loved Nelson Mandela,” said Pat Houston, the singer's sister-in-law and Houston estate executor who is an executive producer on the concert film.
