This is a "luck of the draw" trip - currently taking names, they will be pulled on Friday, 9/13.
Join us for gravity-defying acrobatics, astonishing human pyramids, Afro-jazz, percussion and kora, a stringed instrument used extensively in West Africa. Cirque Kalabanté is the creation of Guinean artist Yamoussa Bangoura, an alum of Cirque Éloize and Cirque Baobab who has also performed with Cirque du Soleil. Prepare for an unforgettable experience! Now a resident of Montreal, Canada, Yamoussa Bangoura transmits and shares his values, passion, and expertise as Artistic Director of Cirque Kalabanté and as an educator of the various artistic disciplines in circus arts, African dance and traditional music of West Africa. This is a shortened version of the evening performance. Show begins at 10:00 am and lasts for 50 minutes. Pre-registration required. Minimum 6/Max 14.
