The weekend (May 21 and 22) is very rich in events associated specifically with the memory of the abolition of slaves but not only … a small non-exhaustive inventory of things to see and do in Fort-de-France.
1- Fountain myths
Three dance pieces that will delight their imaginative side, but not only, for the artistic technique of the Chaillot-Théâtre national de danse dancers. Nothing to say: The duo dance great. We really have a good time whether it’s parents or kids (view from 6 years old). And those without children: go ahead too! Myths designed, revised and largely corrected, it’s a very good plan…
> Tale in the Fountain: Saturday May 21 6.30 pm / From 6 years / Rates: 25 euros for adults and 7 euros for children / Atrium Tropic: J-Cazotte Street, in Fort-de-France.

2- Rene Louise’s performance
René Luiz, a visual artist from Martinique, tells us that it was “definitely his last great performance”… he chose the theme of “pilgrimage”. A poetic and spiritual journey, a walk among the performances of “Blues and Afro-Caribbean”.
It’s free and this morning at Tropics Atrium…
> The Rene Louise Show at 10 am, at The Latrium, J. Cazot Street in FdF / Contact: 0596.70.79.29
