A Phenomenal Event Today in 65 countries!

A Phenomenal Global Children's Play Today in 65 countries!

29th of May 2007
Joensuu, Finland

A new children's play called The Drops Of Life will have its world premiere today. This play is about the importance of environmental protection and co-operation. The original idea for this play came from the ENO Programme that organises a tree planting day on the international day for peace in September. There was a need for a play that could be performed at schools to celebrate the day.

The Drops Of Life has been created purely on a voluntary basis. The original manuscript is made by a Finnish writer and artist, Mr Esko-Pekka Tiitinen. The music and the English translation are by Mr Mika Vanhanen, the co-founder and co-ordinator of the ENO Programme.

The premiere on the 29th of May will be very special because it will take place simultaneously at ENO schools in about 65 countries, on every continent. The manuscript is available will cover over 40 languages. The Drops Of Life is a highlight for the World Environment Day 2007. It is also a part of ENO 2007 Tree Planting Campaign and linked to UNEP's Billion Tree Campaign. The Finnish premier will be streamed online from Finland today at 3:30 UTC.
