Daughters
A chaotic but incisive cabaret from
Ukrainian revolutionists.
The seven women in Dakh Daughters do as
they please. They call the genre freak cabaret,
and have positioned themselves in a noman’s
land between theatre and music. Every song is
a spectacle and a story in itself. The attitude
is punk, the dance is burlesque ballet and the
music is electronica and folk.
With whitened faces, sooty eyes and blood-red
lips they look as if they have stepped straight
out of a silent movie. But Dakh Daughters do
not make a habit of being silent or sitting still.
The ensemble made a courageous, uncompromising decision in 2013 when they performed
0 18
in Independence Square in Kiev during the
protests, which eventually led to the Ukrainian
revolution.
All of the members are both actors and
musicians, and as the name of the ensemble
suggests, they are all children of the DAKH
Centre of Contemporary Arts in Ukraine. The
responsibilities of the members of the ensemble
include singing, screaming, speaking, dancing,
acting, doing stunts and playing fifteen different
instruments.

RIFF
RIFF is being arranged for the third time and
has at its foundation great words such as roots,
identity, divergence and fellowship. But most
importantly it is a limitless celebration of music
for the feet, head and heart.

The evening is hosted by the dedicated cultural ambassador and dancer Chiku Ali and
you will hear Sanjally Jobarteh on the African
kora harp.
A bubbling melting pot of music,
dance rhythms and messages from all
corners of the world.
Yuzzo (pictured) and The Front Line Band mix
reggae, hip hop and African music. They sing
about love, but never take it for granted. It’s
about hope and the battle for freedom, but also
about dance and having fun on the way there.
Meelodi consists of multi-string-instrumentalist Ole André Farstad and painter Medi
Farmani on vocals. Together with a number of
guest artists they serve an eclectic mixture
from all corners of the world.
