"It's been a long process, we had to work at the same time the theatre was being renovated so we did many of the rehearsals in other places. We did a casting, some of the older actors had experience but all of the young people didn't, so we had workshops ahead of the show, that gave us time to know each other, we have grew together and that is our strength."

LEAD IN :
The Incas ruled Peru from the 1430s until the arrival of the Spaniards in 1532, constructing stone-block cities and roads and developing a highly organised society that extended from modern-day Colombia to Chile.
Inca and colonial influences are both in evidence in the historic city of Cusco, which receives 850-thousand visitors each year.
Now a successful theatre performance is reviving Andean stories from the ancient Inca world.
STORYLINE :
"Chaska, an Andean story" is a spectacular performance of drama, dance, acrobatics, live music and a magnificent show of light and sound.
The original script is inspired by the myths and the history of pre-Columbine Peru.
It tells the story of a teenage girl call Chaska.
Before Kusikay, Cusco didn't have a theatre.
