In a brilliant display of thought-provoking and insightful theatrical performances, students of the Sir Arthur Lewis Community College (SALCC) Drama Club put on two nights (April 21st & 22nd) of the production, ‘A Little Folktale’. The production, written, directed and performed by the students was well received on both evenings by a warm and welcoming audience. The play tells the story of the Caribbean folklore characters such as ladjablès, ti bolonm and kòkma, cleverly weaved into an exquisite modern day setting. Commendations from the performances were glowing, complimentary and heartfelt, including the following from CDF’s FaceBook page:
A wonderful show! Full of energy and with brilliant young artists! A new arts company is born!! ~ Alliance Française de Sainte Lucie
It was FANTASTIC!!!!!!! ~ Colin Weekes
It was well put together and well executed. Considering it was written and directed by the SALCC students, it gives me great hope for the continued development of theatre Arts here. I am proud of them and proud of the parents who continue to support them. My wish is for more adult support of these activities. Best wishes and sincere thanks CDF… ~ June Frederick
