A taste of China

DEAN OF THE FACULTY OF HUMANITIES AND EDUCATION at the University of the West Indies Cave Hill Campus, Dr Jennifer Obidah, hit the nail on the head when she said there was great interest in Chinese culture in Barbados.

Evidence of this was seen in the overwhelming response from the audience at the Errol Barrow Centre For Creative Imagination at Cave Hill on Monday night, with the engaging display of Chinese culture by the Art Troupe of China University of Political Science and Law (CUPL).

The professional group put on a thrilling programme of dance, singing and music that afforded a glimpse of the rich cultures of the diverse regions of China.

So high was the interest, many disappointed people were turned away because there were no more seats to be had in the auditorium. (GC)
