Welcome in collaboration with La Bâtie - Geneva Festival.
With blue nile to the galaxy around olodumare, the North American dancer and choreographer based in Basel and the South African dance collective pantsula meet jazz stars Alice Coltrane and Bheki Mseleku. How do cosmic and spiritual music, the sonic incarnation of the American civil rights movement, and pantsula, a manifestation of resistance to South African apartheid, shed light on the understanding of our place in time? What path to the future are they drawing? Science fiction? Afrofuturism? There is an urgent need to make something new out of something old. To dance. To tell a story.
