Witness. Question. Ache. The First Chapter of a Diasporic Odyssey Begins.

‍

National Dance Awards 2025 nominee Kennedy Junior Muntanga is an emerging force in UK dance theatre, fusing fierce physicality, dynamic theatricality, and bold storytelling rooted in the African diaspora. Akropolis I, is the first part of a striking new trilogy exploring fractured identity, intergenerational legacy, and diasporic memory.

Performed as a solo, the piece features four distinct characters — the Hare, the Lion, Eva, and the Commander — each a vessel for Muntanga’s exploration of power, survival and belonging in post-colonial, Western contexts.
