you ignorant bafoon.
DE GABAY project is an initiative started by a group of young Somali poets from Butetown, Cardiff. These young poets with the help of the National Theatre of Wales put a show this Sunday that depicts stories of Somalis sailing from Somalia to Cardiff’s Tiger Bay. ...Butetown and Cardiff Bay were turned into a festival of Somali poetry, drama, dance and song on Sunday March 2nd, as National Theatre Wales’ spectacular production De Gabay took over the city.
Hundreds of people attended performances during the day-long event, which was designed to explore the themes of identity and belonging in Cardiff’s Somali community. The city has the largest population of Somali people outside of Somalia.
The day began with around 500 ticket holders being issued with “passports”, which gave each of them the identity of a real Butetown resident from the past or present.
They were then sent to small, intimate performances of poetry and drama in one of 50 “secret locations” across Butetown, Grangetown and Riverside, before joining one of two parade routes.
The first, which set off from Loudoun Square, remembered the Somali community’s past. Performers acting as characters from the early 19th century acted out the journey early immigrants would have made from Somalia to Cardiff’s docks, with spectators asked to pass through a number of checkpoints to have their passports inspected.
A giant puppet of a camel delighted the crowds, who also had the chance to try traditional Somali food and listen to Somali music.
