Indian Council for Cultural Relations (Ministry of External Affairs) and Somaiya Vidyavihar cordially invite you to AFRICA Festival:
"Performance of Dance & Music by Hibiscus Group from Mauritius"
Traditional Mauritian Sega Tipik is a vibrant performing art, emblematic of the Creole community and performed at informal private family events or in public spaces. Songs sung in a minor key gradually increase in tempo, as dancers move their hips and hands to a percussive beat, using short steps to manoeuvre around each other in a variety of different formations.

Representing the multiculturalism of Mauritian society, Sega breaks down cultural and class barriers, creates opportunities for intercultural encounters, and unifies various groups around a shared Mauritian heritage.
