Why Do Hyenas Have Shorter Back Legs Than Front Legs And Why Do Monkeys Have Bare Bottoms?

In a set featuring the colours of Africa, five dancers bring this tale from Burkina Faso to life.

To recreate the wild and fantastic ambiance, the performers wear animal masks made in the country. Journey through this magical wild world, where it all begins with “Once upon a time…”!

This popular tale from Burkina Faso is about authority, cunning, conceitedness and consequences. Set against a fantastical and comic backdrop, the story denounces greed and lying in relationships between people.

Suitable for ages 2-8.
