As the language can be a barrier, many teachers around the world have translated the play into their native languages. For instance, in South Africa this play will be translated into 8 languages out of their 11 official ones! You can find the manuscripts in different languages under "MANUSCRIPT&MUSIC".
It is not easy to translate the songs. Many schools will perform the play in their own language but sing the songs in English. Some schools do the play also in English even though it is not an official language in their country.
For instance SchoolNetMali-Mokoya Juru from Bamako (Mali) will perform this play in French but the kids will sing the songs in English. They will also be intereviewed and their comments will be heard later in ENO Radio. Deborah Soumaoro is the coordinator of this play in Mali.
