Best practice: shorter is better. Listings will often cut off the description after 2 or 3 sentences.

Black Umfolosi International is one of the African continent’s most revered vocal groups, with more than three decades of international touring behind them. Their shows feature a capella songs in many of the languages of southern Africa, as well as almost non-stop dancing. The imbube music they perform is a fusion of traditional Zulu music and more modern genres. The songs are delivered with passion, integrity and humour. The group also performs in colourful African attire, usually changing their apparel a couple of times during any given show. One of the highlights of any BUI performance is their famous gumboot dance, a tradition which originated in the mines of southern Africa. Dancers perform bare-chested wearing hard hats and long gumboots as they execute incredible feats of dance and percussion. The songs and dance are tied together with interesting and informative banter from the group. A BUI show is a deep dive into the incredible culture of Zimbabwe.
