African Dance, Drums, Story and Games

Anansegromma presents an exhilarating and memorable introduction to West African culture. Audiences become members of a typical Ghanaian village, gathering with "royal elders" and court musicians to experience traditional music, storytelling and dance, enhanced by the vibrant colors of their native attire. Through "call and response" songs, games, mime, dance and drum rhythms, Kofi and Kwame offer an engaging, first-hand exploration of West African culture. Their energetic program includes demonstrations of authentic musical instruments, and an explanation of kente cloth symbolism. With their extensive background as teachers and performers, and expertise in character education, Anansegromma has developed programs that engage, educate and entertain audiences of all ages.
