Oni Oni is a poem based on Afro-Cuban mythology. It narrates the story of Yemayá – the owner of the oceans and mother of all – and her adopted son Changó, a warrior who rules over thunder and drums. Using dance, live music, drama and beautiful costumes, this folklore-inspired piece celebrates Cuba’s African cultural heritage and rich story-telling traditions.

Oni Oni is written, choreographed and directed by Danys “La Mora” Pérez, the award-winning founder of Oyu Oro, a collective of artists who defend the traditions of Afro-descendant culture through dance, song and music.
