The coming of the spring has also brougt the first MMCC workshop and performance outside Kabul.

1200 children in Gardiz about 100 km south of Kabul participated in an MMCC workshop. The local radio had announced the workshop and the children started queing up five hours before the first performance.

For four days the children were taught acting, stilt walking, puppet making and traditional Afghan dancing and drumming. Many of the children are used to be neglected by the adults and to boost their self esteem MMCC made an exhibition with their paintings.

The local government in Paktia province was very happy with the program and is now considering to stage more MMCC workshops.
