The upcoming concert, 'PEACE' is being organised with the intention of supporting two very important charities. The evening will feature special guests, friends, choirs, and pupils of Haasinee Halpe Andree in an initiative to bridge peace between the Muslim and Catholic communities, in memory of the Easter Sunday attacks of April 2019.

The concert will donate all proceeds after expenses towards the medical aid of the surviving children of the Easter Sunday attacks in collaboration with Seth Sarana Caritas, while equally contributing towards Golden Path Mothers Hostel, a Muslim Elders Home based in Ratmalana. 

This evening aims at unifying these two cultures through collaborative efforts, with music. Christian hymns, Muslim songs, as well as Muslim-Catholic collaborations will be a special feature. 

It will feature special guest artistes, the Muslim Choral Ensemble, as well as Zahara Mohamed, Zainab Wahid, Erandi Madushika, Sulara Nanayakkara, Akhry Ameer, and Thulasi Gunawardana among others. 
The audience will be treated to a varied range of repertoire from classical music to Arabic, Sinhala, and Tamil popular songs.

You, the audience, can look forward to joining in and singing some well-known tunes. In order to make this event accessible to all, the concert will be live streamed apart from being held at the Lionel Wendt on Sunday, 14th August 2022 at 7pm. They also have a mask policy indoors to ensure the audience is at the least possible risk, and have made arrangements for sanitization at the doors to the theatre. 

Don't miss out on this creatively driven evening of poetry and music!
