Mother Africa

Jump to reviews or comments (1)

The circus of senses bewitches with a great variety of acts and the easiness they are presented with. Its special character is formed by a mixture of traditional African and modern circus and show elements with great acrobatic acts, stomping live sound and choreography that is based upon African traditional dances. Everyone can feel the energy and joy of life on a continent that is said to be the cradle of mankind. All the artists from Africa will perform a show that is a state of the art circus show and a hot party. With a live band! All ages.

It was brilliant
The background, the music, the performance transported us ...
I kept looking round the audience and everyone was transfixed although it was mixed age groups ...(I myself had a group of 9 with age ranges 7-10 +5 teens and 2 adults to entertain - oh and to add , 5 had been to see the lion king the week before)
The scenery, the dancing (a wee bit of fabulous tap) the music, the singing voices, the smiles, the unbelievable bendy man and impossible acrobatics ....it was simply brilliant..totally professional...so uplifting...excellent value for the ticket price ...can't say enough ..
