The place where it happens

Youth traverse courtyards and rooftop terraces, transforming Stone Town into intersecting performance routes.

Cultural exchange

What we learn

We learn how history is architectural—how doors, corridors, and courtyards hold memory.

What we share

We share promenade and route-based staging methods that let a whole neighborhood become a set.

Community & context

Stone Town is a living labyrinth—tourism, local life, and heritage layered together. The work taught youth to reclaim the maze as their stage.

Shared community needs

  • Stable youth rehearsal access inside the old city
  • Support for performances that can move through public space safely
  • Documentation resources for site-based work
