"The welcoming was great and the message was well received. This is the first time in Haiti and people discover just the existence of the theater-forum, yet they reacted as if it was part of their daily lives. The atmosphere was great, they expressed open heart and have made strong proposals to try to resolve the issue of child protection in Haiti," declared Luxon Zidor, the director of the troupe.

"The theater-forum, also known as the 'theater of the oppressed' is an interactive exercise where the audience up on stage to propose solutions to problems. The play ends dramatically. Then we resumes the play from the stratand the public is invited to intervene to prevent the tragedy from happening. Spectators become 'spect-ACTORS'. They attend and play at the same time. This is to change the course of history, and thus to provide, at their respective levels, solutions to life's problems," explained. Zidor, himself an actor of the troupe.

This tour is conducted in partnership with UNESCO and the Ministry of Culture in order to develop a culture of peace and non-violence and community cohesion particularly among young people in vulnerable neighborhoods. It is part of the national campaign "Ann Chwazi Lapè" of the Office of Communication and Public Information (CPIO) and Division of Community Violence Reduction (CVR) of the Minustah https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-13637-haiti-culture-double-national-tour-for-peace.html
