Description

Enjoy a night of electrifying percussive dance fused with contemporary art forms by Step Afrika! in their latest production, Drumfolk. 

Inspired by the Stono Rebellion of 1739 and the Negro Act of 1740 in South Carolina, after state laws mandated that enslaved Africans could not assemble or use their drums. Even with the removal of drums, they could not stop the beat. 

Drumfolk is the rich story of a moment that could not be stopped and transformed African American culture from then to the present day.
