Inventive choreographer, exquisite mover and South African dance star, Gregory Maqoma, joins four exceptional musicians (violin, cello, sitar and percussion) in a unique work of movement, text and music. Beautiful Me is an exploration of identity and friendship, but most of all it is Gregory Maqoma’s story, told with love and lightness, humor and honesty. Maqoma grew up in Soweto, studying with Moving Into Dance in Johannesburg and Anna Teresa de Keersmaeker in Brussels, before founding Vuyani Dance Theatre in 1999, subsequently winning national and international awards.For tickets: http://www.vsartsnm.org/theater-festivals-gdf-09-10.htm#beautifulFor more info: http://www.mappinternational.org/artists/view/44/
