" A night of Amazement!" - Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, Germany.

The African Footprint is infused with infectious rhythms that stay with the audience long after they have left the theatre.AFRICAN FOOTPRINT tells the vibrant and diverse history of South Africa through a breathtaking blend of Afro- and Euro-centric music and dance.  A cast of 30 energetic performers has created a show so exciting and entertaining that critics have dubbed AFRICAN FOOTPRINT  “The Riverdance of South Africa ”.

In 1998, South African Performer/Producer Richard Loring started a school for disadvantaged South African youth interested in performance.  When CNN decided to broadcast Millennial Festivities, on New Years Eve 1999, from the prison cell where Mandela had been held at  Robben Island , Loring’s troupe was invited to perform.  The performance, broadcast around the world, became the launching pad for AFRICAN FOOTPRINT.  Since its splashy conception, AFRICAN FOOTPRINT has played for seven years in South Africa , 2½ years touring Europe, as well as numerous engagements throughout Australia , China , Israel and India .  The show has been seen by over 250 million audience members, including luminaries such as Bill Clinton, HRH Prince Charles and Nelson Mandela.
