Ndere Dance Troupe at Keshet Center for the Arts
Mark your calendar for two spectacular performances featuring music, dance, and storytelling!
March 28th & 29th at 6:30 at Keshet Dance and Center for the Arts
Historically in Africa, written words did not exist. Therefore Africa’s cultural history, literature, customs, and wisdom were recorded and passed on to succeeding generations through the medium of performing arts, music, dance, storytelling and poetry.
Pride in education, in efforts to salvage and conserve African heritage, the Ndere Troupe performs a repertoire of authentic Ugandan dances and songs accompanied by various Indigenous percussive, stringed and wind instruments. The Ndere Troupe engages in various projects aimed at keeping African generations educated about traditional entertainment and also uses traditional entertainment to spread knowledge about current issues such as modern farming techniques and HIV/AIDS.
These performances by Ndere Troupe are a part of two-week residency hosted by Revo Inc. Admission is free to the public thanks to the City of Albuquerque Arts & Culture Department and Keshet Dance and Center for the Arts.
