‘Umoja’ means ‘together’ in Zulu. Together, every night in theatres throughout the world, 32 dancers, singers and musicians retrace the fascinating and passionate artistic history of the South African territories. This musical journey pulsates with emotions, colours and rhythms in a whirlwind of creative energy. Umoja’s soul resides in its musical numbers delivered by exceptional voices and powerful rhythms. ‘Our music helps us to remain human, because in Africa, rhythm is life itself’, declares Hope, the show’s narrator. Let yourself be captivated by the tribal songs and seized by the intense rhythm of the miner’s dance, the gumboot. Drift away with the intoxicating jazz and the sulphurous atmosphere of the apartheid-era African cabarets. Thrill to the magic and emotion of the gospel choir and discover the latest styles of music and dance, hip-hop and pantsula, created by young people in the ghettoes. Fabulous, explosive and irresistible, this musical comes straight from Johannesburg and it is a pure joy.
