Afrique en Cirque at the Edinburgh Festival at The Mound in Edinburgh, Scotland on 01 August 2023

Afrique en Cirque is inspired by the daily life in Guinea, West Africa. A colourful show beyond its scenery, costumes and staging, Afrique en Cirque will make Assembly Hall vibrate with energy this August. It represents strength,agility and the joys of young Africans. The audience will see acrobats execute gravity-defying moves and human pyramids, all to the contemporary sounds of Afro-Jazz, percussion, and kora.

Presented by Kalabanté Productions, Afrique en Cirque is a show by multidisciplinary artist Yamoussa Bangoura. Having started his training in circus within the Guinean troupe Circus Baobab, Yamoussa went on toto tour internationally with Cirque Éloize and equestrian company Cavalia, before devotinghimself to his company Kalabanté Productions.

Afrique en Cirque is an authentic experience that pays homage to the Guinean diaspora and is inspired by the international experiences of its creator. High-level acrobatics,innovative choreography, and colourful rhythms – enter the universe of Kalabanté Productions and prepare for an unforgettable journey.

Afrique en Cirque will run at Assembly Festival’s Main Hall, 17:05, 03 – 28 August 2023.
