Tavaziva Beautiful People

Performed by Tavaziva Dance with music and choreography by Bawren Tavaziva, this new outdoor performance is inspired by "Ilanga Umuntu Umuthle" (Shona, translates "The Sun is the Beautiful People")

The piece takes the theme of the African market-place and sunset:
"when the sun and sky turn shades of gold and red, everything almost
comes to a standstill, people and animals pause, there is a stillness
in the air. When there is movement it becomes so rich and elegant. This
is when nature performs its own dance." (Bawren Tavaziva).

Visually, the piece will reflect the radiant colours of sunset, in strikingly-coloured
costumes, and the movement vocabulary will combine Tavaziva's unique Contemporary Dance and African styles. The dancers will use six "ruseros" (large, round, basketwork sieves) -which are common in the marketplaces of Zimbabwe.

Led by acclaimed dancer, choreographer and musician Bawren Tavaziva, Tavaziva Dance Company are known for their unique combination of contemporary and African dance styles.

A Without Walls Commission.
