Cape Town-based iKapa Dance Theatre will be partnering with Joburg music duo African Explosiv in a nationwide tour of the production Inhale/Exhale. Following its successful premiere in Maputo, Mozambique in March, the South African tour of this full length dance theatre production commences at The Market Theatre Lab in Johannesburg from 11-14 April. Inhale/Exhale combines the artistic and technical excellence of iKapa choreographers, Tanya Arshamian and Theo Ndindwa, with the unique musical talents of African Explosiv's Thokozani Mhlambi and Nobuntu Nqulwane. The production was inspired by how universal stories and life experiences cause an emotional reaction that affects one's breathing. "The dancers allow multiple emotions to stimulate their breath, which is the inspiration behind their movement," explains Ndindwa. Inhale/Exhale will be showing at the following theatres: The Market Theatre Lab, Johannesburg, 11-14 April 2012 at 20h00 The Playhouse Theatre, Durban, 4-7 July at 20h00 The Guild Theatre, East London, 11-14 July at 20h00 Artscape Arena Theatre, Cape Town, 1-4 August 2012 at 20h00 Tickets are R100 / R50 Concession.
