Even saints got rhythm
Article Abstract:
Brazilian theatre group Bando de Teatro Olodum, which is currently visiting the UK, will link with the London-based Black Theatre Co-operative to perform a show entitled 'Ere.' This concerns the lives of street children, and refers to the recent shooting by police in Rio of eight young vagrants. The theatre group is extremely popular with young people in Brazil, but the Brazilian government has been uncomfortable about having the country's social problems publicised abroad in this way.
