Kwanzaa Concert
Every December, right after Christmas, Lula Washington Day Theatre students perform in the annual Kwanzaa concert. Focusing on African dance, the concert celebrates children, family, and community.
Lula Washington Dance Theatre presents an annual Kwanzaa Festival – three days of high velocity dancing and drumming, mixing African Dance, Modern dance, cultural dance forms and ballet in unforgettable ways.
The celebration features a blending of Lula Washington’s youth dancers and the professional members of her world famous international touring company.
This is a cultural holiday celebration, not a religious holiday observance. Lula’s program illuminates the seven principals of Kwanzaa, all of which advocate for the development of families; children; communities; and individual well being.
This is a family friendly performance for adults and children alike. The youth dancers often steal the show.
For Kwanzaa, the performances are is held in Lula Washington’s dance studio, 3773 Crenshaw Boulevard, LA CA 90016 in South Los Angeles. Parking is free in the LWDT parking lot.
Reviewers have called this one of the best holiday shows they have ever seen in Los Angeles. Come see for yourself.
