Gregory Maqoma

The Land We Carry

"South African dancer and choreographer Gregory Maqoma fuses tradition and history into his world-class performances." — CNN

Gregory Maqoma’s The Land We Carry explores the universality of dance and, through its barrier-defying nature, ability to communicate with the human spirit. 

Informed by the union between humans and nature, The Land We Carry ruminates on the visceral release experienced through dancing and the collective rhythm that can be felt when humans allow themselves to connect, uninhibited by language, through movement and a spiritual awareness.

Join Maqoma as he questions the concept of home and invites audiences to instead step into a space where walls do not exist.
