‘I am WE’ is a dance piece on the aphorism that a person is a person through other persons.

‘JUST ME’ highlights the loneness of human; how we go through life’s challenges, pains, struggles, dominance and success.

To-Be is a Duo Dance Piece By Lucrece Sidoine Atchade (Benin) and Esther Essien (Nigeria)

Oneness is a site specific performance that involves the use of Yoruba Bata drums and flute as they synchronize with the dance as a symbol to portray the unity that exists in
humanity.

The Call is an invocation, a call to self-exploration, destiny inquisition, interaction and oneness with nature.

iStand focuses on the environmental and social issues faced in our communities.
