Brooklyn Center for the Performing Arts presents Step Afrika!
Saturday, April 28, 2018 at 3pm & 8pm

Brooklyn Center for the Performing Arts at Brooklyn College concludes its 2017-18 Season at the Kumble Theater at LIU Brooklyn on Saturday, April 28, 2018 at 3pm & 8pm with Step Afrika!

With its origins in African American fraternities and sororities, stepping is known for its intricate, synchronized patterns of stomps, kicks, claps, and call-and-response. As the world’s first professional company dedicated to this art form, the dancers of Step Afrika! use their bodies as instruments, integrating stepping with African traditional dance and other dance forms to create a high-energy, sharply choreographed, and incredibly entertaining performance.
