ADAMMA MASQUERADE
THIS IS A MASQUERADE KNOWN FOR HER ENTICING LOOK, GOOD DANCING STEPS, THE COLORFUL APPEARANCE, THE PULCHRITUDINOUS PHYSIOGNOMY, AND ENTERTAINING NATURE. THE MASQUERADE IS ACCOMPANIED BY MELODIOUS DRUM BEATS… WATCHING THIS MASQUERADE WHILE DANCING HAD MADE MANY PEOPLE ESPECIALLY CHILDREN FORGOT THE MISSION THEY WERE BEEN SENT TO.
“Adamma is a contemporary maiden spirit mask that originates from the Enugu-Igbo of southeastern Nigeria. The mask is performed by men only and is accompanied by music that the masker dances to. Unlike other Igbo masks Adamma mask does not have any spiritual value behind it.”

I KNOW YOU WILL LOVE TO WATCH ADAMMA DANCE; FROM THE NAME “ADAMMA” YOU WILL FIND OUT THAT THE MASQUERADE DEPICTS THE BEAUTY OF AN IGBO WOMAN/GIRL. THE MASQUERADE HAS BOTH THE DAUGHTER AND THE MOTHER.
I’M SO HAPPY THAT I KNOW, AND HAVE WATCHED THIS MASQUERADE IN MY LIFE…
