Yes-Ya-Yebo! is a celebration of the 12 official languages of South Africa, expressed through song and dance, all imbued with a unique township vibe! From the traditional Gumboot Dance and The Click Song to modern hits like Jerusalema, the audience will gain insights into their lives in the township and their aspirations for the future. The performers are eager to share their energy and the joy of their cultures.
Yes-Ya-Yebo! is more than just a show - it will leave you smiling and elated long after the final bow and deeply informed about the lives of these young people. "To be there, to share, to dance, sing and entertain. Singing with no amplification and filling a room, dancing with great joy and filling your heart" "you would be a fool to miss it."
