ACE dance and music presents The World As We See It, a double bill redefining dance from the African Diaspora through two contrasting visions of the world today.
Echoes of Dust, choreographed by Serge Aimé Coulibaly with creative contributions from Sigué Sayouba, asks what remains of our humanity when all seems lost. Seven individuals find themselves stranded in the heart of chaos, confronting a world torn apart by war, disaster and the collapse of human connection. Stripped of certainty and memory, they stumble, fight and protest — and with each encounter, a voice is reclaimed.
Letlalo, choreographed by Vincent Mantsoe, takes its title from the Sotho word for "Skin". Drawing on African, Indigenous and contemporary dance languages, the work explores the deep connection between humanity and the earth. Rooted in ancestral wisdom and inspired by nomadic cultures, it reflects on the quiet strength of communities living in harmony, examining themes of power, unity, serenity and interconnectedness.
