Country: Guinea – Québec
This show is part of the series Les Grands Événements which is presented by ICI Musique.
Description:
“I worked for almost all Quebec circuses internationally and found that something was missing, I missed the African acrobatics. So I wanted to put on a show that talked about my country of origin which is Guinea,” explains Yamoussa Bangoura, founder of the troupe (RFI, 2022). Afrique en cirque, which returns from an international tour, is a refreshing and hyper-energizing summary of the immense artistic talent that is home to West Africa. Acrobatic, explosive feats, agile and athletic choreography, thrilling percussion, authentic kora, paintings that follow one another in a frantic rhythm… The show brings together theatre, music, dance and circus arts.”
