Creator's Key Takeaways

We're going to go deep into the savannah. Are you all ready for that?

The drums are very intricate part of the African culture. It is the heartbeat, the breath of that country or that that that continent.

We wanted to make sure that we brought that to this show. And so we brought in drummers playing authentic African drums, African instruments.

We wanted every bit to capture uh the spirits and warm of the African inspired dining experience, still keeping in mind our guest preference and the test pallet.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Try the berry spice roasted chicken with tomato and roasted red pepper rice
Sample the Malva pudding dessert with chocolate and Ethiopian coffee garnish
Engage with the show by watching the performers' movements and listening to the live drumming
