Following its resounding success in 2008 and 2009, Beautyfull, choreographed and directed by Ina Wichterich, showed at the Baxter Theatre last week.
Jazzart’s very own newly appointed artistic director, Jackie Manyaapelo, as well as company dancers Refiloe Mogoje and Phindile Kula, featured in this stunning piece of art. Also featured in this collaboration was leading South African integrated dance initiative Remix Dance Company and South African Circle of Dance Academy.
“Beautyfull disarms you very easily with its lighthearted tone, opening you up for its genuinely moving undertones. You don't exactly forget that you are watching differently-abled performers, but it stops being all that remarkable. All you see are dancers enthralled by their art.This production deserves more than condescension. It demands audiences.” – Zane Henry
"In one word: beautiful. Go watch Beautyfull at the Baxter, it is just that and then so much more. The most wonderful declaration of love." - Klaus Warshkow
