Les Ballets Africains, the national dance company of the Republic of Guinea, was formed in Paris in 1952 by distinguished Guinean choreographer Keita Fodeba. The company quickly established itself as a global phenomenon—hailed as cultural ambassadors that proudly uphold Africa’s vast cultural heritage. Bridging the gap between nations through the universal language of dance and music, the 35-member company presents an inimitable blend of traditional dance, music, and storytelling featuring striking demonstrations of spectacle, acrobatics, comedy, and drama.
