Mr. Kengmo and Mr. Ngwa ended the show by choosing about 20 students and teachers from the audience to come on stage. Some were assigned to play drums with Mr. Ngwa; others were asked to mimic Mr. Kengmo's dance routine.
The auditorium erupted into movement to the sound of pulsating beats.
The performers closed by asking the students to honor and to applaud their teachers “the ones trying to prepare you for your future, trying to pass on the knowledge you need to have a successful life.”
The students responded with a standing ovation for their teachers. Many students hung around the stage after the show, reluctant to part with Mr. Kengmo and Mr. Ngwa.
Asked a couple of days later what they liked most about the performance, students offered a variety of answers.
Brian Williams, a junior, said he like learning about a culture so different from his own.
Sophomore Andrew Van Horn said he though the music was the best part.
Senior Serena Waddell said: “They made the whole audience feel like they were in it. They were very informative. They tried to get rid of misconceptions about Africa. They boosted our spirits by telling us that every body is a genius and that everybody is beautiful.”
“It was more than I expected,” said Rosie McCloud, a freshman. “1 expected a little bit of singing, but it was nothing like that. It was amazing.”
