Through colorful drumming and dance, Kucheza Ngoma Dance Company chronicles the influence of the African diaspora on dance, starting with traditional West African rhythms and dance and moving on through the Caribbean and into the Americas.

This journey culminates with Jamaican pop-culture’s Dancehall, which evolved from traditional West African and West Indian folk-dance styles. The interactive nature of this program will bring participants in the audience on stage to drum, dance, and do the limbo!

Young Audiences of Houston’s mission is to educate and inspire children through the arts, to make the arts an integral part of the school curriculum, and to advance the field of arts in education through teacher professional development training and community partnerships.
