Eshu at the Crossroads indoor tour
choreographed by Miguel Altunaga indoor version
At a mysterious crossroads, a traveller must decide which way to turn. Watching over them is a powerful rooster, while nearby waits Eshu – the playful and unpredictable trickster spirit who delights in mischief, surprises and unexpected possibilities. As the journey unfolds, the traveller encounters challenges, moments of joy and new ways of seeing the world around them.
Afro-Cuban choreographer Miguel Altunaga joins forces with pioneering puppetry company Theatre-Rites for a vibrant family adventure inspired by Yorubic culture, myth and storytelling. Blending dance, live performance and puppetry, Eshu at the Crossroads invites audiences into a magical world where every choice can change your path.
Drawing on storytelling traditions rooted in Yoruba culture, Altunaga’s choreography combines with Theatre-Rites’ imaginative visual theatre to create a rich, sensory experience for audiences of all ages. Music, movement and puppetry come together in a production that celebrates curiosity, courage and the importance of embracing the unknown.
Created for everyone aged 5+, Eshu at the Crossroads is a warm, funny and thought-provoking introduction to dance and theatre for families to experience together.
