Tell The Bees

AstaroTheatro
On Saturday, May 2, Café Gilde (OT301) will host the performance Tell The Bees by AstaroTheatro. This theatrical production blends poetry, acting presence, alarming beats, and a resounding flute. It serves as a cyclical call to attune to nature, if only temporarily. The performance aligns with AstaroTheatro’s grassroots approach, creating original theater from the performers themselves, with the aim of actively engaging the audience in a participatory experience.The program begins at 19:00 with dinner, followed by the performance at 19:30.

The Amarte Foundation was founded by a number of individuals and their families who share a deep love for the arts. They wish to support the development of creatives and talent in arts and culture by providing financial means and where possible coaching, knowledge and experience. Artists who are active in the cultural sectors of the Netherlands or the ABC and SSS islands (the Caribbean part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands) can apply to Amarte for the support of projects in the field of theatre, film, music, visual arts and literature, as well as interdisciplinary projects.
