About this plan
Mamita Africa is one of those free plans in Bogotá that works great for the whole family. It is a theater and music show for all ages with free entry, staged at Centro Cultural Compartir La Pilona 10 in Ciudad Bolívar, in the south of the city.
The performance features Afro-Peruvian storyteller and musician Marco Esqueche. He mixes voice, rhythm, stories, and play to bring the audience closer to the African ancestral heritage found in Afro-American cultures. Traditional songs, children's chants, and rhythmic games come together to honor African roots and their mark on music and storytelling across the continent.
The Instituto Distrital de las Artes (Idartes) invites you to a participatory, all-ages event full of music. Get there early, bring the kids, and enjoy a different kind of Sunday in southern Bogotá.
