From January 08 to February 12, 2011, youth from the Al Amal Association (Association for support of children and women in difficulty in Midelt) were delighted. In our socio-educational center, these kids were supervised by Miss Genevieve Tremblay, actress belonging to the Canadian team of "Tower of Babel."
During those five weeks, our young people have experienced moments too rare in our region: learn the basic techniques of drama. That is, the stage presence, body language, the acting, improvisation, mime, clowning, etc. ...
This young specialist has adapted and staged with the help of local translators, a Tale of Morocco. She led the children, despite the handicap of the language, making costumes and interpretation of the characters.
Introduction to the basics of theater is an extraordinary opportunity for young people who had benefited in Midelt and Flilou.
On behalf of the Office of Al Amal Association and on my own behalf, I wish to thank Miss Jennifer Smith for this laudable initiative, that of coming to our region of central Morocco, to give a little dream for our children poor by making them, through the theater, dragging the real to the imaginary.
We also thank the team of "Tower of Babel", a special mention to our friend Hamid Aatany, through this initiative.
