This poem can be considered a Total Theatre delivered in the traditional Ghanaian Griot style consisting of the three key elements of our African storytelling – { Music, Dance, and Drama }.
With a focus to actively engage its audiences even right from the beginning in participation and not just the Griot delivering the message, “ADUWODZI” sets off with a Call and Response – a song-like Chant with the audience which is meant to “Fire up” or charge all in presence.
The song/ Chant gets to be repeated in between and in the final part.
” ADUWODZI,” which means Conqueror/ Victor, is not just an engaging piece suitable for cheerful gatherings; it’s also to Unite – Empower, and Remind not only the Black African but the entire human race of Who we are and can be in living mindfully for our betterment and well-being.
The piece can be delivered everywhere – given space and achieve the rapt listening attention of the audiences – on Air, streets theatre halls, and festivals.
