The making process is finished with SulyOn and we are now into a new stage: orquestrating the two 'tribes' -the masked family and the puppet family -in performance. They are a stong team of 40 (and more) performers who will take the park first, and then the streets of Suleimaniyah this coming Tuesday (more details of venue and times TBC). After a intense week of making, the picture shows the state of the room where we have been working at the Red Building.
Today we previewed our new devised piece 'Mother Earth' to an invited audience of more than 500 people, and amongst them, few dignataries and ministries from the Government. The children seemed to enjoy it most and the feedback we received was positive. Later on the week, we will return to Chouiefat International School, to extend the work and deliver a puppet making and puppeteering workshop to their students. We feel honoured for this opportunity and would like to thank John Nicholson and his team.
And as we prepare for our last week together in Kurdistan, we are increasing the workload to accomplish as much as we can while the three of us are here. Therefore, tomorrow we will be performing at Rozh Nursery and later on the week we will also perform at Tavga Primary School and at Hamdy Primary and Secondary School for which we are all very excited. We are also meeting the Kurdish branch of Save the Children and the College of Fine Arts in the hope to be able to collaborate with them.
We will keep you updated.
The KMPE team.
