These young girls who come from the interior of Guyana, represent their commune Apatou, their college Ma Aiye and above all introduced their traditional dance, the awassa.
Young dancers from Apatou in New York performing in Times Square
•
A demonstration that could have seemed unusual but, in the middle of Manhattan, in the famous Times Square, there is nothing that bothers New Yorkers accustomed to street performances. Naturally, they gathered to admire the bushinengue dance that was presented to them.
A very unique adventure for these young girls in the language section of their college. During this trip, they will have to use their knowledge of the English language and promote their culture directly inspired by their African origins.
