“Whether sweetly seductive or exuberant in their virtuosity,
the performers lost no time in making friends.”
—Newark Star-Ledger
Stylish performances delivered with warmth, humor and joy have won fans worldwide for these virtuoso artists celebrating the varied cultures of Mozambique. With a repertoire ranging from traditional dance with choral and instrumental music to modern African ballet accompanied by story telling, this high spirited ensemble made its U.S. debut in 1998 at the Kennedy Center. More than 35 touring company members have returned annually ever since to the delight of audiences across the country. Stay after the performance for a Meet-the-Artists discussion.
