Santo Domingo, July 18, 2018 \u2013<\/strong>\u00a0The \u201cTeatro Orquestal Dominicano (TODO),\u201d a theater group that features 170 children, youth and adults with various physical and mental challenges will celebrate its fifth anniversary with the play \u201cPir\u00e1mide 179,\u201d written by renowned Dominican playwright M\u00e1ximo Avil\u00e9s Blonda.<\/p>\n

The special free presentation is scheduled for Wednesday, July 25, in Santo Domingo\u2019s Palace of Fine\u00a0 Arts at 8:00 p.m.\u00a0 The theater group is headed by actress and playwright Elizabeth Ovalle.<\/p>\n

Director Quilda D\u00b4Oleo is in charge of the presentation, assisted by Quennia Rivera while Serbio Uribe heads the play\u2019s verse interpretation.\u00a0\u00a0Wanda Camilo is the choreographer, Eddy S\u00e1nchez is in charge of percussions and the choral background is a joint effort carried out by Sim\u00f3n Cesar and Ondina Matos.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>The play \u201cPir\u00e1mide 179\u201d\u00a0deals with the division of two countries: Haiti and the Dominican Republic. \u00a0The work highlights the contradictions originated by the division of the island of Hispaniola, which does not respond to its ethnic reality or geographical situation, but rather by the division of human\u00a0 beings. \u00a0The play raises the importance of brotherhood and understanding among nations.<\/p>\n

The physically and mentally challenged children of the group TODO actively participate in various artistic disciplines, allowing them to express and develop their natural talents.<\/p>\n

The project began five years ago as an initiative of the Ministry of Culture, and today has more than 100 members. The group is greatly admired by the general public.<\/p>\n

TODO\u2019s director, actress and playwright Elizabeth Ovalle, explained that the group is divided into five areas: coral, dance, percussion,\u00a0 theatre and Down\u2019s Syndrome.<\/p>\n

The theater group made its debut on May 27, 2013 in Santo Domingo\u2019s National Theater, and the opening event was attended by hundreds of supporters.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
