Dorothée Munjaneza/ Cie Kadidi ›Umuko‹

In the organizer's words:

A beautiful tree with vermilion flowers is the focus of Dorothée Munyaneza's new work. In Rwanda, the Umuko tree is traditionally regarded as a healer and keeper of stories. It symbolizes the bond between past, present and future. For the Rwandan-British choreographer, it is both a childhood memory and a promise for the future. Together with five young Rwandan artists, she celebrates the creativity, daring and freedom of a new generation in this powerful performance: people who carry on a common heritage while dreaming of a future that resists the omnipresent destruction. 'umuko' is a work full of joy, love and solidarity.

Dorothée Munyaneza recently received the prestigious Salavisa European Dance Award (Seda) in Portugal.

Early boarding is offered to the audience for the performances. This refers to advance admission to the stage area. The offer is aimed at people who need to experience the conditions of the venue in advance and find a suitable seat in relation to their own needs. With this offer, we want to address, for example, autistic people, neurodivergent people, wheelchair users or people with other mobility impairments.
Registration for early boarding: service@pact-zollverein.de
