Show AKO

This dance show invites you to dive into its warm and captivating world, in which three masked characters experience a metamorphosis. Their performance creates a stage in itself, a circular space drawn from a red thread distributed to the audience, an act that even spreads the dance into the crowd by inviting audience members to follow a few steps in unison with thread in hand.

designed for public spaces...

AKO is a work inspired by the rhythms and expressivity of traditional Afro-Colombian dance through a contemporary perspective. The piece simultaneously celebrates femininity, joy and resilience. If desired, a complementary workshop for the general public exploring AKO’s world of dance can be offered in addition to the performance.
