Quiet Riot: Sankofa

7 December @ 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm AEDT

In the colonial Caribbean, plantations harvest a salty, succulent kind of gold

A grieving young girl barely surviving a world that leeches her very soul

A call from the gods whispers something old and bold

But tethered minds struggle to crack long-held holds

Is her remembering enough?

What does it really take to become revolution-kind of tough?

Written by Amarantha Robinson (Oshun, La Mama), this lyrical ensemble experience fuses Afro-Caribbean mysticism and history with dance and drumming, to give a transmission of awakening and power.
