Mambo

Nicole Inica Hamilton, Ilter Ibrahimof

Mambo – the new podcast from Fall for Dance North (FFDN), Toronto's Premier International Dance Festival – tells stories that swing to the rhythm of our modern lives. A first-time dance festival experience leads to a first-time baseball game. A cancelled choreographic work transforms into an audio production. Forlorn dance festival objects find solace in a group counselling session. Follow your co-hosts Nicole Hamilton (Turn Out Radio) and Ilter Ibrahimof's (Artistic Director of FFDN) curiosity as dance leads them into human and humorous exchange. First season premieres during FFDN's 6th edition festival from Sept. 29 to Oct. 18, 2020
