Events Description
DanceHouse, in partnership with Blackout Art Society and Vancouver Latin American Cultural Centre, presents the Vancouver premiere of Afro-Colombian Dance Company Sankofa Danzafro’s episodic work, The City of Others (La Ciudad de los Otros), on stage February 21 at 8pm, and February 22 at 2pm & 8pm at the Vancouver Playhouse.
Created in celebration of Colombia’s 159th anniversary of the abolition of slavery, The City of Others seeks to take apart the country’s history and culture to examine its complex and often agonizing past. Blending contemporary dance with high-energy beats inspired by Latin and hip hop music, coupled with traditional Colombian songs and rhythms, the dancers and live musicians reclaim the stage as a space for democracy, equality, and empowerment. The result is at once exhilarating and powerfully rousing. For tickets and further information, visit: dancehouse.ca
