Show in Downtown Tunis

Yesterday we went to downtown Tunis for a walk and to check out some books at Al Kitab bookstore.

We found Habib Bourguiba street closed to cars and lots of people were gathering in front of the Municipal Theatre there.
It turns out the Municipality of Tunis had organized a show by the students of the National School of Circus Arts (2 of whom appear in the photo above).
We stopped and watched for a while, it was really cool and nice. These guys are very talented and in really good shape.

After the show, there was a Rai concert, but we didn't stay. We went on for a little walk, then sat down at a café on the side of the street and had some citronade, before moving on and going home.

I think it's great that the Municipality of Tunis is always holding such shows and concerts for free in downtown Tunis, especially in the summer and in Ramadhan.
Not everyone is able to attend concerts at festivals; this way they're not left out of the fun.
