In a spectacular display of color, movement, and live music, this 38-member Brazilian troupe of dancers, musicians, and singers will perform a thrilling program of Bahian folkloric dances of African origin including slave dances, capoeira, samba, and Carnival celebrations.

Internationally, the company has performed at the Sydney Opera House, Teatro da Trinidade in Lisbon, the Savoy Teateeri in Helsinki, the Parteatern in Stockholm and Teatret Albertslund in Copenhagen, as well as a seven-country tour of South America.
