New York Live Arts’ (Live Arts) Live Feed creative residency and commissioning program presents the World Premiere of Lacina Coulibaly’s Until the Lion Tells the Story… A heartfelt tribute from Coulibaly to the remarkable African scholars who have ignited a fire in him. It is an attempt and desire of the Burkina Faso artist to envision an African Renaissance, a different Africa that is rooted in its own indigenous knowledge, drawing inspiration from its cultural diversity, from ancient Egypt to the Mali Empire. Until The Lion Tells the Story… will be presented at New York Live Arts Theater (219 West 19th Street, New York, NY 10011) from Thursday, March 28th through Saturday, March 30th, 2024 at 7:30pm. There will be a Stay Late post-show conversation with Coulibaly and Charmaine Warren (performer, historian, consultant and dance writer). Tickets start at $25, with limited $15 ConEdison options, and can be purchased at NewYorkLiveArts.org or 212-924-0077
