He's coming all this way to prove he's still the biggest bender on the planet. Are you vertebrave enough to take on the Limbo king? Yup, they’re creating an incredible and surreal party marrying with pure joyousness the art of chaotic creativity, illustrious interactive installations and sheer generous wit that’ll leave you bawling with laughter and inspiration! Their art and humour could be categorised as absurdist, surrealist, situationist, or dadaist - depends who’s asking.
UMBABINGO!
LIMBO CONTEST!
TRIBAL GAMES!
TOPLESS DARTS DANCE OFF!
AND LOADS MORE!
How low can you go? Come colourful and enjoy the shimmying beats of this tribal night where grass skirts and Hawaiian shirts will be worn, and worn out! The limbo pole will make sure everyone’s horizontal! (It’s covered in fibre glass - mama’s secret recipe). The high priest is tickled red, gold and green that he can once again rub his victorious skills in all of your funny faces. He’s become way too attached to that perch of his and needs knocking off by a gallant multi-skilled, dedicated, hard working, enthusiastic, audience member who is able to work in a team.
‘Sharpen your elbows, grow your nails and claw your way to the front of the tribal ecstatica to witness the Grand High Priest of Umbabungo shower us with his shower. Come celebrate his majesty at our Harvest celebration and bring offerings for his delight and bring angel delight. UH-OH! Hope you’ve brushed your toothy-pegs because the Grand High Priest of Umbabungo can smell an egg. Don’t worry you can have your teeth picked at and gums disinfected by our in-house Umbabungo tooth specialist.’ The High Priest
So stretch your lobes loads, lengthen your neck, take off your salad dresses and put on your head dresses for the much salivated Umbabungo contest!
