MMCC take off - first
workshop
In taxies fully loaded with child-actors, stilts, puppets and an
elephant made of papmache, the Mini Circus on Tuesday December 17,
2002 took off from the safe base in Aschianas main child-center
to do its first workshop.
After two month of exercise and doing several performances in order
to develop the concept, it was now time to get mobile. Tension was
high when MMCC started to build up its stage at Aschiana no. 3,
where 600 streetworking children study in two daily shifts.
During three days the center was turned into a creative studio,
starting with a performance done by the team of MMCC-employees and
child-actors. On the third day it finished with singing and acting
done by the children at the child-center themselves.
It was a tired but very happy team, who returned to the base late
Thursday afternoon after a succesfull start of what is from now
on going to be regular workshops for thousands of children all over
the country.
