Mobaya: Coming of Age is a vibrant, multi-generational dance performance that brings to life the rich cultural traditions of Mali and Guinea through the powerful lens of live West African music. The performance centers on the journey of young women coming of age in a community deeply rooted in tradition yet facing the realities of modern life. They navigate the delicate balance between embracing new opportunities and honoring their cultural heritage as they prepare to forge their own paths. Mobaya: Coming of Age is more than a dance performance—it's a celebration of cultural resilience, empowerment, and the enduring power of community across generations.
