On February 24-26, Tianjin Cathay Future Childrens Art Troupe from China will visit Dominica which is their last destination of their world tour including the UN, the United States, Bahamas, Barbados and Dominican Republic.

They will give a wonderful performance full of Chinese style with 12 children from the Flamboyant Dancers (from the village of Dublanc) who will perform two traditional dances full of Dominican style at 18:00 on February 25, at the Arawak House of Culture.

This joint performance by the children from both China and Dominica is exciting because it is the first time in there are culture exchanges between the two countries.

We hope that all the Dominicans who love arts can enjoy the performance on February 25 which is free of charge.

China Tianjin Cathay Future Children’s Art Troupe was founded in May 1995, and is one of the largest children’s art troupes of the most art categories and largest number of actors in China.

The troupe has 10 branches, and there are 800 little actors in it. In 2001, the art troupe was nominated as “Chinese Children’s Art Troupe of Friendship” by Chinese People’s Association for Friendship with Foreign Countries.

The Cathay Future Children’s Art Troupe successfully fulfilled the “Global Performing Tour Program”, giving one thousand performances in one hundred countries, starting from Indonesia in 1995 and ending in Qatar in 2013.

Over the past 20 years, children of the Cathay Future have travelled 2,291,725 km and set their feet on 410 cities and towns worldwide with 380 performing items, a length they have covered in their global tour equivalent to 57 complete revolutions of the earth. Heads of state of 36 countries hugged these kids, more than 200,000 Chinese nationals and overseas Chinese have looked up to the future of China from these kids, millions of foreign audiences have got to know Tianjin through these performances and tens of thousands of media reports around the world have covered the Global Performing Tour.

Cathay children have left their footprint in over 30 SOS children villages, orphanages and also remote corners of Africa. Like a peace dove with an olive branch in its mouth, Cathay Future has flied to other countries bringing with it a message of friendship of Tianjin people to other nations around the world and has left behind it a shining name card of Tianjin.

No wonder, Cathay Future children have been regarded by friends around the world as Angels of Peace and Friendship.

    That is very nice. I am sure we will enjoy that because we do not get culture very often here. By the way, I never knew the U.N. was a country, I always thought it was an international organisation.
