World premiere

Senegal
Air de temps is much more than just a dance performance. It embodies a contemporary manifesto that urges boldness, unfiltered expression, and taboo-free speech. It explores themes of revolution, change, and the expression of contemporary youth while defying conventions.
L’Ecole des Sables-Germaine Acogny presents this daring production that embodies the hope of Senegalese youth for an African renaissance. This piece highlights the fervent desire for change among contemporary youth, while drawing on the Germaine Acogny Technique to blend tradition and contemporaneity.
Air de Temps is a demonstrative and taboo-free expression, reflecting cultural identity and self-assertion while embracing others, within a cultural movement that draws strength from African values while remaining open to the universal.
