African Dance Theatre
This Cardiff based act are the UK's number 1 West African Dance and Musical Group and ambassadors of West African musical culture with their signature masks and colourful costumes! Their excitingly dynamic show features furious percussive beats, soaring vocals, a mesmerising flute player and rootsy acoustics of the Ngoni with acrobatic dance thrown in for good measure. Outstanding entertainment!
The group is a collective of about 15 dancers and musicians, telling the mythologies and history of the region using artistic choreography, featuring traditional and contemporary West-African Dance and Music, with a strong presence in the Black Dance Sector. The group have an amazing Fulani Flute player and the beautiful Ngoni a West African acoustic guitar. Of course there are the fantastic percussionists and some spectacular solo dances at the end!
