Global Spring: INDABA
Konsertti järjestetään osana Global Spring -festivaalia
INDABA is a warm-hearted children’s performance about questions like: How does it feel to be Finnish, or African, or both? How do many identities fit into one person?
Our indaba is based on an understanding of identity as a diverse, fluid and pluralistic thing that lives and grows as we do. Each person is many things at the same time and we don’t need to choose between this or that aspect of belonging.
Indaba is an isiZulu word for a discussion where the right people meet at the right moment to figure out things that concern them. Let’s have an indaba!
Performers
- Ayla Brinkmann, voice, dance, flutes
- Kasheshi Makena, voice, dance, ngomas, timbila, flute, trombone
- Pietari Kauppinen, voice, dance, flute, MPC
