AFGHANISTAN: Social Circus & Theatre

Seth Bloom and Christina Gelsone met while working in Afghanistan with two different circus & theatre organizations. Their goals were developing with Afghans--who have endured 25 years of war and resistance--circus, art, and theatre projects to afford alternatives by bringing people together culturally, rather than dividing them politically. These projects inspire creativity, resourcefulness, and hope for a more peaceful and stable future.
