Bumi Purnati Indonesia / Sri Qadariatin - Hikayat perahu (The Tale of Boat)
Adapted from a seminal text of Malay literature, Syair Perahu: in the story of a boat navigating the ocean, the poet symbolises life and the spiritual journey the soul undertakes towards God.
Originally from Benin and based in France for many years, the world music singer Angélique Kidjo is featured at the Biennale Teatro for a duo concert with pianist Thierry Vaton.
