Sun Dance archiveAn international cast of 36 dancers, singers and musicians celebrate the brilliant colours and vibrant music of Africa in a display of ceremonial dances, rituals and initiation ceremonies, all played out to the hypnotic throb of the African Drum. Patti Boulaye's Sun Dance centres on the sensitivity of African Woman and her progress through life from birth to death, mirrored and expressed by ceremonial dance at every stage. With settings as diverse as the deserts of the north to the equatorial forest of the east and west to the central African plains and the waterfalls of the south, taking in all the seasons, it includes virile young warriors preparing for battle, female Amazonian warriors, legends and folklore, the Priestess, the Goddess, Witchdoctor, death and lamentation... the very essence of Africa.
