Bangla Drama, shared

By on Tuesday, October 28, 2014

One of the great privileges of being part of A Season of Bangla Drama is meeting the other people involved. There’s an amazing community of performance-makers here in Tower Hamlets, and this festival really illustrates how Bangladeshi culture in the borough can become a catalyst for something truly diverse and cross-cultural. Our project is a perfect example: a collaboration between Daedalus and Bisho Shahitto Kendro.

Here are some photos (credit: Ziaur Rahman Saklen) of members of our East storytelling group with other participants at the SOBD sharing event last weekend.

You can see us perform at Queen Mary, University of London, on 7th November, 7:30pm. More details are here or you can just go ahead and book tickets online here.

Our Word is Our Weapon

By on Monday, October 27, 2014

The latest reading group meeting took place last week. Get in touch for the details of the next one.

In the meantime, as a follow-up to that, here’s the speech in which Subcommandante Insurgente Marcos announced the end of his existence, and, to whet your whistle, a rather good quotation from it:

It is our conviction and our practice that in order to rebel and to struggle, neither leaders nor bosses nor messiahs nor saviors are necessary. To struggle, one only needs a sense of shame, a bit of dignity, and a lot of organization.
