AACT World Fest

Let’s welcome the final spotlight before the festival begins tonight, Ghana 🇬🇭

A one-woman award-winning multimodal performance piece that generates fresh perspectives on the experiences of the nameless African women, men, and children who once languished in the dungeons of Cape Coast Castle and suffered the agony of the Middle Passage. Based on original, firsthand research in the Ghana dungeons for African captives, Walking with My Ancestors takes the audience on a ritual journey that leads to revelation, reconciliation, and rebirth.

Through live drumming, singing, dancing, and acting, the performer explores how our national and cultural climates connect with truths of our shared and painful pasts. Each performance ends with a discussion about histories, repair, affirmations, and futurities. Ultimately, it is a story we share about triumph over adversity, resilience, and survival.
