Post Gazette: The African Rainbow Project show will go on this week, but not exactly as planned.
Two highly regarded performers from the Republic of Guinea were to make their Pittsburgh debut tomorrow and Saturday at the August Wilson Center, but were denied visas at the last minute.
However, the West African Dance Ensemble Balafon is still on board. So are selected Pittsburgh school children who have taken special workshops with Balafon director Kadiatou Conte for the past several weeks. The children will join the ensemble onstage for part of the performance.
