Women as Warriors

I'm thankful I'm able to give a voice to the women in Africa.
Democratic Republic of Congo is a richfull place with minerals like cassiterite. There is a war going on in the world for these minerals that are being used in our technical luxury. It's heartbreaking to know the truth about the secrets behind our technical luxury. In Democratic Republic of Congo rape is being used as a weapon for war. Latest research has shown that 48 women are being raped every hour. A war that has been going on for rich and wealth. ‪#‎How‬ much technical luxury do we actually need?#

Women as warriors

As you all may know us from RCTH are working on a production: Women as warriors. This will be performed at the festival 75 jaar oorlog in de stad.

What is the motivation, the reason why women decide to pick up 
weapons during the war. Lately there are women fighting in the army too, we share their story’s why they decide to go into the front line to fight. We’ll be sharing the story of Tanja Neimeijer, Angela Davis, Jeanne D'Arc, Hannie Schaft, Shilan and the women from Africa. It will be a beautiful, powerful and deep stage play, a story that needs to be told. Cause too many times the media only share what they want to share. Our story will be raw, true and pure. Stories that need to be told, words that need to be heard.

So if you are free come out and see our show on:

22, 23, 29, 30 and 31 of May. Friday @ 7pm.

Saturday and Sunday @ 5 pm.

Location: Mathenesserdijk 293 in Rotterdam
