Look Back, Dance Forward: TALES OF HOME | Congo/Mozambique is a two-evening program featuring Faustin Linyekula (Congo) in his acclaimed solo, Le Cargo, and Panaibra Gabriel Canda (Mozambique) in his expressive duet, Time & Spaces: The Marrabenta Solos, with live music performed by guitarist Jorge Domingos. In both pieces, the artists grapple with the complex histories of their countries by re-igniting memories of and experiences with their fathers. In the process, they reveal the rigor and passions of their contemporary lives.
