"Electric Burma "
is a concert to celebrate the inspiring woman Aung San Suu Kyi.On June 18,
she will fly to Dublin where, for the first time
in history, she will attend a concert in her honor outside Burma .
The concert will
commence at 5 pm on June 18th, at the Bord Gais Energy Theater. Actors,
musicians and dancers will travel to Dublin
from across the globe to celebrate this inspiring woman. We want to share this
moment in an intimate opera-house setting with the whole world. She
will have received Amnesty International’s highest accolade, the Ambassador of
Conscience Award.
This
concert is a celebration, but it is also an opportunity to echo Daw Suu’s
message, which is also Amnesty International’s message, that human rights
matter.
Bono is one of the stars present in the celebration together with: Damien Rice, Vanessa Redgrave,Bob Geldof, Riverdance,Angelique Kidjo and more acts.
