In a celebration of cultural heritage and theatrical excellence, the Alwin Bully Foundation, in partnership with La Cour Des Arts De La Dominique Inc., is set to breathe new life into the iconic play ‘STREAK’. This revival commemorates the 50th anniversary of its debut and coincides with Dominica’s 47th Independence Day festivities, while also honoring the 77th birthday of the legendary playwright Alwin Bully. Originally written by Bully and first performed by People’s Action Theatre in 1975, ‘STREAK’ has left an indelible mark on Caribbean theatre. The play, which toured extensively across Dominica and the Caribbean, captures a transformative era marked by the Black Power and Rastafarian movements, reflecting the social, political, and cultural upheavals of the time. It poignantly depicts the struggles of young people navigating these turbulent changes. The upcoming performances, scheduled for November 1 and 2 at The Geralds Hall, will feature a talented ensemble of over 20 actors, directed by Severin Mckenzie with Curtis Clarendon as assistant director. A media launch for the event will take place on September 30 at The Factory. Theatre enthusiasts and supporters are encouraged to attend this historic revival, with tickets available for $75 at Bulls Eye Pharmacy.
