Powerful. Personal. Connection.
Olivier Award-winning choreographer and composer Dickson Mbi wants to tell his son a bedtime story.
But this is not just any story: it’s an epic drawing from Mbi’s Cameroonian heritage and inspired by the mythical deity Mami Wata.
In this UK premiere, dancers fuse physicality and grace, whilst Mbi’s immersive score takes you from gentle lullaby to stirring chants. TELLUS is more than a performance — it’s a ritual to reconnect with the quiet, powerful source of everything: our Earth, our past, our mother.
