Step Afrika! at the UMass Amherst Fine Arts Center (Amherst, MA)

Enjoy the company’s self-titled work Step Afrika!. This show introduces audiences to stepping through both a traditional and contemporary lens.

Step Afrika! blends percussive dance styles practiced by historically African American fraternities and sororities; traditional African dances; and an array of contemporary dance and art forms into a cohesive, compelling artistic experience. Performances are much more than dance shows; they integrate songs, storytelling, humor, and audience participation. The blend of technique, agility, and pure energy makes each performance unique and leaves the audience with their hearts pounding.
