Drawing on his heritage as a Sangoma and his signature blend of contemporary dance with ancestral ritual, Mantsoe journeys through the turbulence of modern human existence toward a deep ethos of connection—“I am because you are.” Lace into this rarely seen performance and allow the choreography’s raw energy and spiritual undercurrents to stir your perspective on body, memory and community.
