Water flowed today, March 31st, 2023 in Ouahigouya Burkina Faso! (thank you Kassoum for pics!) for the Well built by the lilac co., Water*Well*Theatre*Project* [n.1] … and we got to be in the dirt with the kids, for theatre labs!
First steps towards future creations we hope to do in Burkina Faso.
Madi Ouedraogo aka Cobra—(pictured above taking a picture — tall man wearing red cap, who is a Chief in the region)
sent this message: “This means more than if you came and built a Mosque, because millions will drink from this, and anyone, of any faith, or of no faith at all, can drink here.”
Love and thanks to ShrineNYC in Harlem, and to all who gave to this project, and to Abdel Kader, Idris Diarra, Sidiki, Aziza, Yassia Ouedraogo, Kassoum Ouedraogo, and Oumarou, and many many more, together on the ground, and in the dirt everyday, making this work happen.
yours,
sean
