Description
An extraordinary collaboration between dancers from Kibera and Kariobangi, two informal settlements in Nairobi. Each has its own tribe, traditions and language. Together they represent an important part of Kenya's rich culture, and they are using this to create a platform for dialogue around menstruation and period poverty. Pamoja is an African contemporary dance show, featuring performances and stories from women living in informal settlements and villages in Kenya. Through traditional drums, music, dance and spoken word, the show aims to challenge our perceptions and normalise the discussion around periods and menstruation in Africa.Please note that while all media gallery content is provided by verified members of the event, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society does not review or approve this content before it is posted.
