The option to offer your guests a Mini African Extravaganza is now available in the Hoedspruit area.  

Maureen Lahoud Show Distributors has created a touring show which allows your guests to enjoy an African experience through song and dance.

“Roots of Rhythm” is a dynamic 50 minute show which includes a kaleidoscope of rhythms, dance steps, singing, drumming, music and costumes and has been designed to avoid the repetitive element of the normal African show format. 

It traverses from the rural villages and tribal warrior across to the gumboot miners and Sofia town City Jive. 

The “Hollywood” style interpretation of Africa allows the guests to enjoy a wider spectrum of the African Cultures without losing the flavour of the African Traditions.
