Charleston WVTres Souls has cancelled their performance scheduled for April 5. In their place, we have scheduled Dance of Hope with opener Cariño.
Uganda’s Dance of Hope is Africa’s leading Youth-based Arts Education Program that captures the messages of hope and resilience emanating from memorable stage productions, cross-cultural programs, and youth outreach.
Dance of Hope is experiential. Whether in performance or residency, the children use music, dance, and storytelling to expose audiences to Africa’s rich culture, history and the arts. They also share their transformative personal stories in an interactive format with the audience.
The interactive main-stage performances are for the entire family. There are many elements exciting for all ages. By the end of the performance, audiences will feel as though they have been transported to the African continent.
Dancing, singing and drumming in the traditions of their villages and cities, these 10 young performers provide a thrilling performance.
