“Stars in Concert” for Bartica Community Centre Ground

Barticians are in for a treat on Saturday, May 27, when the event “Stars in Concert” is held at the Bartica Community Centre Ground. The event is one of two planned by the recently formed Guyana Committee of Services to raise funds to assist sportsmen and woman and more importantly, to promote cultural activities. “Stars in Concert” will feature some of the best local talents in Guyana and will cater for all. Those expected to perform are Kwasi “Ace” Edmondson; Lyndon “Jumbie” Jones; Odessa Primus; former Chutney King, Bunty Singh; Roger Hinds, also called “Young Bill Rogers”; Rajan Tiwari; and Ivelaw Campbell, called “Granny Ivelaw”.
In addition, there will be a guest appearance by a Haitian singer. The local talents promise to give residents in Bartica and those from neighbouring villages their money’s worth. Come and be mesmerised by songs, skits, dances and other entertainment pieces. Tickets cost $1000 and will be available at the gates.
Some members of the cast are expected to travel to the United States with Lady Ira to host several fundraising events.
