Cie Carabosse – Exodus of Forgotten Peoples FRANCE In 2012, the two companies Cie Carabosse and Teatro linea de Sombra jointly created a show based on Article 13, of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the right to allow freedom of movement. At the time, the situation for international refugees was a humanitarian disaster. In 2016, the situation hasn’t changed – it’s unspeakable and getting worse. It’s the reason why we decided to carry on with this testimony, mixing fire and thought around this political preoccupation. It’s a work in progress, another step in our reflections, an imperative for us. During the three hours of this show, you will be immersed into fire elements and in direct touch with the wooden walker clan, on the way to somewhere maybe better … “Everyone has the right to freedom of movement Cie Carabosse and residence with the borders of each state.

In 2016, with a record 95,000 attendances – 11,000 from interstate and overseas – the festival contributed WOMADelaide has something for everyone, and I look $15 million to the State’s economy. forward to seeing you within the lush Parklands of Adelaide in March 2017. The success of that event was recently acknowledged in the Helpmann Awards, with WOMADelaide gaining the title of Australia’s Best Contemporary Music Festival.
