Kalabante welcomes Ottawa to Africa
Saturday night I took a drive East and left the city to be “welcomed to Africa” by the insanely talented ,Montreal based, group Kalabante. This African Circus group presented the short version of their show to an eager crowd at the Shenkman Arts Centre. The show symbolizes the joy, playfulness and joie de vivre of African youth. This was not only visually appealing, with incredible acrobatic stunts, but also music to my ears as the performers were also brilliant musicians.
