ELECTRIC BURMA




"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.
