The educational content in this program is recommended for children ages 5 and up.


Dance your way to the tip of the African continent! Experience four exciting cultures!  Traditional Ndlamudance from Zulu villages that give a snapshot of the clothing, customs, live drumming and high energy of South Africa; the moves and percussive sounds of Gumboot, a kind of "instant messaging" dance slapped out on gold miners' rubber boots; Pantsula, an upbeat urban dance like American hip-hop but with a cultural twist; and Tswana, a very energetic traditional dance form.  Don’t be surprised when members of the audience are invited onstage to learn them as well!
