"Ekhaya, Rebirth to Home" is a captivating performance featuring the talents of NALEDI and MiKeshia McPhaul, presented as part of the Savannah Music Festival. This creative project emerged from NALEDI’s artist residency at the festival, driven by a shared desire to connect with the local community and explore common ground. MiKeshia McPhaul, a dancer and choreographer from Savannah, Georgia, brings her extensive experience in community theater and youth projects to the collaboration. Her storytelling through dance, focusing on individual experiences and perspectives, harmonizes with NALEDI’s poetic compositions and love for community narratives.

The performance delves into the life-cycle, celebrating, questioning, and exploring it through a lens of childlike curiosity. The duo’s work is underpinned by NALEDI’s incandescent compositions, inviting audiences into a familiar yet experimental world. This world beckons the audience to reflect on their own relationships with home and the broader world. The partnership between these two emerging artists, rich in experience, centers on lived experiences and the nuances, similarities, and differences in their respective worlds. Their intersecting passion for their communities is evident in this project, which promises to be a thought-provoking and emotionally resonant experience.
