Join master storyteller Usifu Jalloh for an interactive adventure filled with music, imagination, fun and storytelling for all ages.

Usifu Jalloh invites families of all ages on a vibrant journey of music, imagination and play. In this lively new tale, the legendary Anansi the Spider transforms into a superhero, using wit, creativity and a bag of tricks to outsmart Matonkoni the Leopard and his pesky ninkinonkors.

Expect energetic drumming, joyful dancing and infectious songs that bring the story to life and invite everyone to join in. Blending humour, heart and traditional wisdom, this session celebrates kindness, resilience and the power of storytelling to bring people together. Come ready to laugh and take part – all are welcome!
