Spirit of Uganda presents riveting music and dance for audiences of all ages. To the melodic tones of standing drums with dramatic choreography, bright, layered rhythms, and gorgeous call-and-response vocals, a vibrant cast of performers, aged 8-18, oscillates between ferocity and softness as they bring to life the sounds and movements of East Africa. Ambassadors for Uganda’s 2.4 million orphans, they personify the resilience of Africa’s next generation promoting awareness of Uganda’s dual crises of AIDS and civil war, and raise funds to support themselves and others displaced in their homeland. Wine and hors d’oeuvre reception will follow the performance.
Enjoyed by all ages!
