On February 15 2016 Yarat Contemporary Art Space of Azerbaijan hosted a premiere of “Moon Cycles’’, a production created by a group of students from the University of Arts and Culture of Azerbaijan who were trained and coached by professional actors from Bond Street Theatre from the USA.
This collaboration takes place for the first time under the “Community Drama for Peace” Program. The project is supported by the U.S. Embassy’s Cultural Envoys Program and implemented in partnership with Azerbaijan University of Culture and Fine Arts.
Bond Street Theatre creates performances that illustrate important social issues, and uses the arts to educate, inspire, and heal in areas of conflict, poverty and post-war rehabilitation.
Bond Street Theatre responds to humanitarian crises through the uplifting powers of the arts.
The company received a MacArthur Award for its innovative programming, and receives consistent foundation and governmental support, including the US Institute for Peace, the US Department of State and its Embassies around the world.
