Step Afrika
Tuesday, March 30, 2010 @ 1:00 pm
Grades K to 12
Step Afrika is the first professional company in the world dedicated to the tradition of stepping. Founded in 1994, the company has been critically acclaimed for its efforts to promote an understanding of, and appreciation for, stepping and the dance tradition's use as an educational tool for young people worldwide. Step Afrika performs to tens of thousands of children and young adults every year and has performed on stages in Canada, the US, Europe, Africa and the Caribbean. Based in Washington, DC, the company has been featured on CNN, BET, PBS and NPR, as well as in numerous books, documentaries and articles that seek to explore the tradition of stepping. Step Afrika serves as a cultural ambassador at events around the world through special invitations from American embassies. Its signature event - the annual Step Afrika International Cultural Festival in Johannesburg, South Africa - is the fruit of a ten year collaboration with the Soweto Dance Theatre that unites artists from around the world in dialogue and dance performance.

Bam Percussion
Monday April 26th 2010 @ 10:30
All Grades
BAM! Percusion is traveling to Oakville from Gatineau, Quebec to electrify you with their powerful rhythms and deliriously funny sketches. Pulsating energy, drumbeats and laughter, side-splitting comedy and savage drumming virtuosity - their unique language of percussion is spoken only by them, but understood by everyone. Add to this a transcultural humour and a lot of rhythm and you get a truly universal event. BAM! has performed in schools, theatres, concert halls, festivals and outdoor stages before crowds of more than 5,000. BAM! has toured Canada, the United States, South America, Africa, the Middle East, Asia, New Zealand and no less than eleven European countries, making everybody laugh in their own language!
