ETAMIIRO LUKIIKO
is a Luganda phrase meaning “The Drunken Committee.”
It is a story about a village once known for its wisdom and strength, a land of farmers,
builders, and dreamers. Its people were intelligent, hardworking, and proud. Yet over the
years, the systems that once nurtured them began to crumble. Poor infrastructure, insecurity,
and a corrupt administration strangled their efforts. No matter how hard they worked, the
fruits of their labor withered in the dust of a broken system.
This abstract dance theatre piece draws inspiration from Uganda’s political landscape,
reflecting on the recurring cycles of corruption, manipulation, and the gradual decay of moral
wisdom in society.
Performed with satire, humor, and irony, Etamiiro fuses Levyzmstyle’s signature drunken
sway with the traditional Bakisimba rhythms of the Baganda tribe, creating a captivating
blend of contemporary and cultural movement.
