Speaking recently about the inspiration behind the highly anticipated event, Monalisa enthusiastically stated, “I’ve been nurturing the dance production idea for quite a while but my several engagements wouldn’t avail me enough time, so I kept developing it.
I’ve always wanted a production, away from the norms, where people can experience classical recitals at its very best.” “While thisremains a great way to celebrate Christmas with loved ones, I also see it as a powerful means of awakening the dwindling culture of theatre in Africa at large. We’ve been working on this for a while and it promises tobe a memorable atmosphere of unlimited ecstasy, joy and bliss,” she affirms.
