The CCBdance Project was formed in 2006 by Christian Bambara and Celia Weiss Bambara to promote intercultural understanding and peace through experimental African-based contemporary dance. The CCBdance Project aims to address themes of anti-racism, travel, translation, love, violence and interculturalism. The company creates screen dance, site-dance, works made for the proscenium stage, installations, and improvisations. Since its formation, the CCBdance Project has engaged in work that critically addresses the traditional base of West African and Caribbean dance in combination with African, American and European contemporary movement. The company includes the choreography of Lacina Coulibaly, Christian Bambara and Celia Weiss Bambara and is directed by Celia Weiss Bambara.
The company's work has been performed in many locations in France, Germany, Jamaica, Trinidad, Haiti, Burkina Faso, Mali, Senegal, the Ivory Coast, North Carolina, Connecticut, Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York, Michigan, Seattle, Maryland, and Iowa.
