Meraki Dance Festival
The world of dance takes a giant and graceful leap forward welcoming the inaugural ‘Meraki Dance Festival’ presented by Jazzart Dance Theatre.
The term Meraki means “to do something with soul, creativity, or love.” This festival offers a chance to revel in the joy of dance, showcasing both new works and much-loved repertoire performances by choreographers from local, national, and international stages.
From contemporary to ballet, expect to see unique performances by both established and emerging choreographers such as Sifiso Kweyama, Sbo Ndaba, Shaun Oelf, MANACAN, Lihle Mfene, Gain Collective, Imbewu Dance Collective, as well as Chloé Blair from Joburg Ballet.
In addition, the festival will also include workshops and masterclasses to create a platform that sparks conversations around different choreographic styles and for these talented professionals to share their skills with emerging choreographers.
