Final Show at the Cacau Art Space.

During our stay, the students have benefited from the Cacau space to work on their personal project (Casa das Artes Criacão Ambiente Utopias). In the penultimate week of the program, an exhibition was held. Each student was able to show some works realized in São Tomé.

Os Filhos da Terra

On a whim, Lauren, Christina, Cindy and John decided to give us a show. They set out in the jungle in search of:

1 - A good story to tell

2 - homemade costumes

3 - Three partners: Joaquim, Elias, Hamilton.

Then, after several days of intensive training, they offer us a wonderful show based on their experience in São Tomé and some historical stories.

 Thanks to the generosity of the Cacau Art space who made this project possible. We are grateful!

With plastic boxes and sticks, Louis gave us a brilliant musical performance.

Finally, after 20 minutes of intense emotion, the public (Spanish, Taiwanese, Portuguese, Santomean, and French) has applauded wildly. Thanks Guys, this was awesome!
