Performances and Events

A vibrant West African drum and dance performance that traces the journey of life through rhythm, movement, and community. Featuring three generations of performers – including family members sharing the stage – the program weaves together traditional pieces such as Yankadi, Macru, Komodenu, Soko, and Dundunba.

From the grace of youth to the power of maturity, each rhythm reflects a stage of life, honoring the connections that bind generations together. Through the pulse of the drum and the energy of dance, this performance celebrates heritage, transition, and the living traditions that continue to bring people together across time.
