New York Live Arts 3rd Floor Studio

Born in Burkina Faso, choreographer and performer Souleymane Badolo's African heritage is a driving force in his work. The evening will include a new work guided by the Gurunsi divination system bagger, a ritual where form and structure are suggested through the meaning inherent in thrown cowrie shells. Also on the program, BuudouBADOOBADOLO is inspired by Badolo's rich family legacy as it traces the journey of his great-great-grandfather; the lessons his father taught him; and the responsibility he feels to his own son about their ancestry.

Barak will premiere at New York Live Arts on April 25th, 2013.
