Spirit of Uganda

brad.white, Neighbor

Ambassadors for Uganda's 2.7 million orphans, these children personify the resilience and promise of Africa's next generation.

With powerful drums, dramatic choreography, and gorgeous call-and-response vocals, 22 vibrant performers, ages 10–20, bring to life the sounds and movements of East Africa. With artistic director Peter Kasule and special guest Rachel Magoola (Afrigo Band) leading the way, Spirit of Uganda celebrates the cultural roots and newer offshoots of this lush and diverse nation. "Invigorating the stage with that elusive thing called joy" (The New York Times).

Tickets start at $15.
