Baobab Shadows


An African storyteller, beneath a tree tells stories of love and loss. The work uses a wide range of elements: painting done in real time is projected onto a screen and interacts with the singing, dancing, drumming storyteller, dancers, circus artists suspended on a 5 metre long cord, bringing shadows to life.

“The young dancers brought the audience to their feet in a standing ovation for their exquisite fusion of storytelling, dance, music, drumming, art, and acrobatics.” Verity Norman, (Zimbojam)
