The play uses dance music and song to show how Indonesia’s Spice Islands changed the history of global economics when the 1667 Treaty of Breda formalized the Dutch atreement to trade Manhattan to the English in exchange for Pulau Rhun, now part of Indonesia’s Banda Archipelago. This event will be performed on Indonesia’s Independence Day to Commemorate the 350th Anniversary of the Treaty that helped the Dutch colonize Indonesia. The play’s climax includes Sukarno’s 1945 Proclamation of Freedom.

With the support of the Asian Cultural Council, the Mellon Foundation, and the Davis Education Fund, the play was first presented in the United States at Wesleyan University and the Indonesian Consulate of New York where it was featured on BBC Radio, National Public Radio, and other media outlets in coverage that can be found at the website: islands.site.wesleyan.edu

ABOUT US

We are 4 students currently studying in Taman Rama School, and we are concern to the humanitarian issues that are rising at a drastic speed. On highlight, Indonesia Human rights in Indonesia have always been bad, teens forced to marry old people for their life security. Education has actually been improving, but still not much effort is exerted to ensure all kids in Indonesia get the proper education, some lack in the financial department, some lives on inaccessible rural area, they aren’t able to earn enough to feed their family. These are just some of the reason which inspires us to inform others regarding the issues and how to address them. We believe in Humanity through Art, because a painting, a photograph could speak a thousand word.

We want to ensure every single child in Indonesia has their voices heard, in fact they are the significant part of our generation and a little help towards them will help reshape all of our future!
