Multicultural Ceremony
with Aeeshah & Kokomon and others

Following a short opening act, the show begins with a multicultural ceremony enacting the rite of passage that we, as humankind, need to experience. In this participatory ritual, we will move from our present stage of adolescence as a species to one of adulthood. In so doing, we shall embody the qualities of maturiy, awareness and stewardship, thus coming into right relationship with the Earth, our home, and the web of all life.
