Children of Captain Africa

Now at L’Alliance New York, *Children of Captain Africa* is presented as a live, kid-friendly event that uses performance to frame questions of heritage and imagination. The title points to a lineage of heroes and borrowed myths, tracing how children remake big narratives to fit their own lives. In New York’s French cultural circuit, it reads as a small study in how diasporic stories travel and shift onstage. One clear virtue is its refusal to talk down to its audience, even when the themes turn complex.
