Created in 2012, La Compagnie Dumanlé is an artistic ensemble of actors, dancers and musicians, most of whom were trained at the Institut National Supérieur des Arts et de l’Action Culturelle (INSAAC) in Ivory Coast. The company aims to provide collectives and individuals with the means to communicate through the performing arts, and works on choreographic productions inspired by Ivorian heritage culture. Under the direction of Ivorian choreographer Hermann Nikoko, this organization has distinguished itself with a capacity to bring authentic patrimonial values to the international stage. Combining song, percussion, and movement, the Compagnie Dumanlé delivers a positive energy that soothes the soul of its audience. The company won the 19th edition of the national festival “Vacances Culture”, organized by the Ministry of Culture and Francophony, and later participated in the International Dance Festival in Ouagadougou with the “Blahon” (panther men) project. Other shows include “Mask Encounter” in Beijing and “Komian World” at Journées Théâtrales in Carthage, as well as an extended tout in Germany and Holland in 2022.
