OPENING ACTS and INTERMISSIONS |
Due to the energetic style of our show, it is natural to deduce that we would work with a number of high profile clients included but not limited to the National Basketball Association (NBA), the National Hockey League (NHL), the Women's Basketball National Association (WNBA) and the National Football League (NFL). A large number of the teams within these associations have leaned turned towards the African Acrobats as a source for half time entertainment shows. A major turning point for the Acrobats was the opening of the 1999 World Cup Soccer Tournament and the Pan-Am Games. There is yet to be a better 6 - 10 minutes in show business, this offers an explanation to why we are doing a large number of television shows and concert tour openings.

THEATRICAL SHOW |
We are a cultural phenomenon with elements of traditional African dance and music, however with the overseas cultural diversity; our shows are similarly catered to accommodate the hip hop culture, and some of the westernized trends. The performance has taken on a new life of its own, which is so 'hot' and has captivated audiences worldwide; it has to be handled with oven mitts. There is yet to be a language that translates and speaks to all members of the universe. For our younger audiences, Marianne Welch of the Pittsburgh International Children's Theatre Festival has created a user friendly study guide. The African Acrobats have worked with a number of North American presenters, in addition to the Theatre Festival, we have worked with The Brooklyn Centre, Chautauqua Arts Festival, Tribeca Centre, as well as several international festival in New York, Toronto, Adelaide, Perth, Hong Kong, Seattle, Chicago, Vancouver, Calgary, Ottawa and many more.
The show works on almost any surface and is best performed as a twenty to thirty minute acrobatic performance. The African Acrobats do live, taped or hybrid music shows. There is no better or more memorable entertainment extravaganza, that your audiences will ever see! We have performed at over 300 festivals world wide, including the most recently Nickelodeon's Summer Kickoff , Central Park Summerstage, the Music Midtown Festival in Atlanta, the 2003 Orange County Fair, The Pan Afrique Music Fest with Koffi Olomide and more
