This 4th June, BASS are starting the festival with a ‘kick in their step’ with an exclusive dance performance from choreographer/actor, Opiyo Okach. Using ideas of real and fictional borders, the award-wining Kenyan artist aims to create emotionally felt and thought provoking solo performances, using Africa as his main source of inspiration.
“It’s not an extraordinary thing to speak four languages, live four different cultures as everyday reality” – Opiyo Okach.
Make sure to note down the 4th June in your diaries…and be ready to experience dance with a political stance!!
