Brooklyn Center for the Performing Arts at Brooklyn College continues its 2011-2012 Target FamilyFun series on Sunday, April 22, 2012 at 2pm with John Steptoe’s Mufaro’s Beautiful Daughters – An African Tale, performed by the Dallas Children’s Theater on Tour. The series concludes with American Family Theater’s Cinderella on May 20, 2012 at 2pm.
When a great African king desires a wife, only the most perfect maidens in the land are invited to meet him. Mufaro’s daughters, two young women of very different dispositions, travel a half day's journey through a mystical jungle and across a deep river to be presented to the king. Along the way they encounter a number of mysterious situations that test their courage, kindness and strength of spirit. Both are beautiful, but does either have the inner beauty of a potential queen? Based on the Caldecott Award-winning children’s book of the same name, this new family musical sets the Cinderella story amidst the splendor of Zimbabwe, incorporating authentic African drumming, original songs, and powerful and majestic choreography.
Mufaro’s Beautiful Daughters - An African Tale will be immediately followed by Brooklyn Center’s fifth annual National Grid Earth Day Celebration, a free community festival.
Brooklyn Center for the Performing Arts’ 2011-2012 Target FamilyFun series is sponsored by Target.

WE LIVE WITHIN AN UNSTABLE LANDSCAPE
This is a social networking website connecting people concerned about innovation and experimentation on art, dance, embodiment, cognition, science, networks, post-humanism, media and the unstable landscape of contemporary culture and life.
We are in a transitional phase and refocusing the network with a broader interdisciplinary framework. It will reflect a contemporary community interacting and embedded unstablelandscape.
This network is maintained and administrated by Marlon Barrios Solano as an independent art/curatorial/social innovation project.
