"Cultural centres can be hit or miss, but Ndere is a dazzling exception. Here, Uganda’s most famous dance troupe performs every Sunday, Wednesday, and Friday in an open-air village-style atrium fringed with straw-roof huts. The shows are a spectacle of energetic drumming, movement, ululating, and shrieking, with dancers clad in colorful costumes pouring out of the traditional buildings to perform dozens of traditional songs and dances over three hours. The evenings are brought to life by Stephen Rwangyezi, the troupe's founder, who brings out the best in the crowd with trademark dry Ugandan wit." - Scott Campbell
