SEE CIRQUE MOTHER AFRICA AT RESORTS WORLD MANILA

Audiences in Manila are set to be dazzled by Cirque Mother (CircusMama) Africa when it rolls into town on April 19th – 22nd presented by Establish Events in cooperation with Media Central. Philippine audiences are familiar with Cirque Du Soleil but this time, they will be challenged and mesmerized by the sights and sounds of Africa.

This innovative two hour show, which combines African music, dance and performance, pulsates with the heartbeat of Africa and the combined talents of 40 artists from nine African countries, including Ethiopia, South Africa, Kenya, Tanzania, Ivory Coast, Benin, Zimbabwe, and Guinea. Although the artists come from all parts of the African continent, on stage, they fuse into a single family whose cheerfulness and passion immediately capture the audience. And they are versatile performers!   Read more…

THE LITTLE PRINCE – FEBRUARY BOOK

The Little Prince & Letter to a HostageThe Little Prince & Letter to a Hostage by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

View all my reviews

 

I finally managed to finish the book, after several times of attempting to. It’s not that its not interesting, it’s just that perhaps the other times I tried to read it, were times when I just finished a really good book, that I’m having a hang over or the times when I just managed to force myself into finishing a tragically terrible book that I ended up not wanting to read another book right away.
