Description

Formed in the early 1990s by a Central African theatre producer, Espace Linga Téré is a private cultural structure installed in Galabadja, one of the most popular districts of the north of Bangui. Born amidst the great upheavals undergone by the Central African Republic, Espace Linga Téré is a training centre for trades related to the arts and performing arts, a place for creation and cultural dissemination that promotes numerous artists such as theatre companies, music groups, and dance troupes, who are given the use of rehearsal rooms as well as good quality sound and lighting equipment. In addition to management advice, the structure collaborates with different partners to produce a number of shows that are then reproduced on the different African and International festival circuits.

Apart from being at the service of professional artistic activity, Espace Linga Téré is also interested in the recreational and economic development of a wide public of adults and adolescents from different social strata, who have been bruised and shaken by a string of deep political, economic, and military crises.
Espace Linga Téré is also the coordinator of “Afrique Synergie†, a network of private professional structures in Central Africa.
