The Alwin Bully Foundation Inc. is marking a significant milestone with the Golden Jubilee production of the iconic play ‘STREAK,’ coinciding with the 77th birthday of the celebrated playwright, Alwin Bully. This special event honors Bully’s profound contributions to Caribbean theatre and culture, as highlighted in a recent media release by the Foundation. However, the organization faces challenges in bringing the anniversary performance to local communities due to high production costs and limited access to suitable stage and auditorium facilities, a stark contrast to the widespread community tours of the 1970s. In response to overwhelming interest from rural residents, the Foundation is encouraging communities to arrange transportation through local bus operators. To make the performances more accessible, concessionary ticket rates will be offered for groups of ten or more. The Foundation also expressed deep gratitude to patrons, private sector organizations, and individuals whose support has been instrumental in staging ‘STREAK’ on November 1 and 2, reigniting enthusiasm for Dominica’s theatre movement. The play, which resonates with audiences across the Caribbean, emphasizes the shared challenges and interconnectedness of the region. For ticketing inquiries and group rates, interested parties are advised to contact Mrs. Anita Bully at 277-3971 or Ms. Gloria Augustus at 245-9795.
Organizers make group discount rate available for greater accessibility to weekend’s staging of STREAK!
