Human life is fleeting, the world is still unfolding…

Redefining Dance of the African Diaspora with a contemporary outlook, ACE Dance and Music’s bold new double bill presents two powerful, contrasting visions of our world today, told through exhilarating and emotive breathtaking physicality – what are you willing to die for?

Rooted in the realities faced by millions across the globe, Serge Aimé Coulibaly captures the chaos of conflict. Driven by a fierce soundscape and fusion of African and contemporary dance, shattered world’s surge with athleticism and endurance – a testimony to human resilience and courage.

In stark contrast, Vincent Mantsoe’s work takes you to a distant place; travelling to far flung corners of the earth, where spirituality and harmony shape everyday life.

Two choreographers with extraordinary heritage and seven diverse dancers re-write the rules and embody a state of unity and deep connectedness rarely seen in our divided world.

TWAWSI offers a luminous oasis of coexistence – the world as we see it…
