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.
