Join us for Sequins - a solo show fusing fun folk and hip hop dance with funky rhythms and rhymes.
Sequins is Traditional Dance Forum of Scotland new hip hop and Congolese Luba dance theatre solo choreographed and performed by Scottish artist Kalubi Mukengela-Jacoby. It is set to the iconic voice of the BBC broadcaster and author Ian McMillan, reading our recently commissioned sequence of 10 rapping poems, entitled Sequins of Poems to Dance To, as well as the soundscape of Robert Russell.
Selected as part of Edinburgh Festival Fringe Springboard‘25, Sequins is amongst a few new works in this programme curated by a panel of artists currently working in the dance sector. Kalubi’s solo is thus showing alongside works by other Edinburgh-based emerging artists and recent graduates working in theatre, dance and physical theatre. The programme is produced by our academic partners at Edinburgh College.
