Tittle Of Project:   ‘EKASI’

‘Ekasi’ is a 45 minute dance production highlighting a synergy of contemporary dances from the townships of Southern Africa.


Cast: 4 dancers, all male teenagers

Ekasi tells the story of 4 boys born in different countries in Southern Africa, but who share the same vision, to be part of a cross border high energy dance extravaganza that tells the universal story of hope for youth born from frustration and deprivation.  The boys are from the townships of Zimbabwe, Swaziland, Botswana and South Africa, the home of the pantsula dance, which forms the core of the production.
