Performances vary in length and are dependant upon the school’s request. Performances include traditional African dance, drum, song and story. They are educational, energetic, athletic, incredibly entertaining, and include audience engagement and participation.
“Biboti Ouikahilo and the Wacheva Dance Company provided the students (and staff) of our school with an engaging and educational performance…Students were mesmerized by the high-energy music of Biboti and his fellow musicians. The African dancing demonstrated by Biboti and members of the Wacheva Dance Company exuded the joy and human spirit one might imagine seeing in a celebration in his native Ivory Coast…The cultural context of various songs and dances were shared with the audience and provided students with a basic understanding of how music and dance played an integral part of African society… A month later students are still happily recalling the performance.
Thank you for a wonderful and unique show!” – Paul Brewster, Music Teacher, Oswego
