HAVANA, Cuba, Mar 3 (acn) MishMash International Theatre Company will be presented in Havana with the work The nose as part of the exchange developed by centers of ASSITEJ (International Association of Theatre for Children and Youth) of Cuba and Denmark.

The exchange will be completed with the intervention of Cuban artists at the Festival of Theatre for young audiences, in Denmark, next April.

For Cuba there will be present the groups Andante, from Bayamo; Guiñol, from Guantanamo; Teatro La Villa and Teatro La Proa, from Havana; and Alas, from Pinar del Río; which shall also participate in two workshops and theoretical events included within the exchange in the Scandinavian country.
