Theater Dance Performance “H’lub – When We Love Them”
Sun 31 Jul 2016, 7 – 10 pm
Experimental theater, Hanoi Academy of Theatre and Cinema
Mai Dich, Cau Giay District, Hanoi
From the organizer:
The theater dance performance “H’lub – When We Love Them” revolves around two main characters who are victims of human trafficking: Thuy and May. These two girls are lovers of life and have faith in life. Both of them became prostitutes but fortunately, they can return to Vietnam.
The misfortune still dogged Thuy anh May. They were abandoned, discriminated by their relatives, neighbors and friends.
Thuy and May, two girls, two fates, represent the victim of human trafficking when coming back to the community. When they return, would they be welcome? That is the question provoked by this performance. For them, being rescued is not enough, but they need to be “reborn” into a community with empathy, sharing and loving.
We believe with the power of art, “When We Love Them” will give a look of sympathy, humane and love on the human trafficking victim.
► WHO ARE THE ORGANIZERS?
We are the members of project “Moving To Raise” from 10/2015 – 06/2016 at 3 schools: Lao Chai – Yen Bai, A Lu and Ngai Thau – Lao Cai, “hot spots” of the human trafficking issue.
We have run 6 awareness-raising campaigns about the problem of human trafficking to more than 1,000 secondary students and local people. At the same time we also donate basic necessities (food, clothing, school supplies) for the students. Through the trips, we collect the data to build a data source to spread awareness of this problem to many people.
The experiences from these trips are valuable inspiration for our performance. The characters in the theater are entirely based on the people in real life.
