On December 2nd, 2016 at the Constance theatre the dance department presented a show called Agbedidi. The show, directed and choreographed by Mohamed DaCosta and Trent D. Williams, Jr., displayed a combination of Traditional African and Contemporary Dance. The house buzzed with excitement as the start of the show approached.

However, depending on how Mabon falls, it can also be on either the 22nd or the 23rd of September in the Northern Hemisphere.
