<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">The evening is sure to delight, surprise and engage the audience with performance of traditional African, which include Kumba (the orphan/marginalized child) and Kakilambe (the cleansing),
 Mexican and Ethiopian dance forms as well as more contemporary fare of modern, hip hop, fusion inclusive of Cuban, Brazilian, praise dance, drama and spoken word of the urban griots/storytellers/rappers. With pieces choreographed by both teachers and students,
