Cirque Kalabanté

Afrique en Cirque is a show by Yamoussa Bangoura, inspired by daily life in Guinea. This performance shares the beauty, youth, and artistry of African culture. A colorful show beyond its scenery, costumes, and staging, it makes any theatre vibrate with energy and represents the strength, agility, and life’s joys of young Africans. The audience will see acrobats execute gravity-defying moves and human pyramids, accompanied by the contemporary sounds of live Afro-Jazz, percussion, and kora. Welcome to the universe of Kalabanté Productions and prepare for an unforgettable journey.

Kalabanté Productions was founded in 2007 by Yamoussa Bangoura, a multidisciplinary artist of Guinean origin, who dreamed of establishing a circus arts school and his own African arts company. Growing up in Conakry, Guinea, he practiced circus skills inspired by European TV performers and the Nyamakala tradition before joining Circus Baobob and touring Africa and Europe. Recruited to Canada in the early 2000s, he performed with Cirque Eloize, Cirque du Soleil, and Cavalia before launching Kalabanté Productions in Montreal. The company has grown from performing in Quebec to touring worldwide.
