7 Tuesday 21 April to 16 May I Wish to Die Singing at Finborough Theatre Supported by AGCCC UK A play Devised by Neil McPherson, directed by Tommo Fowler The world premiere - Who, after all, today remembers the annihilation of the Armenians? Adolf Hitler, Commemorating the centenary of the Armenian genocide, the world premiere of a documentary drama. "On the night of, April 24th 1915, the Armenians of Constantinople were snoring in a calm sleep exhausted from their Easter celebrations while in the Central Police Station a secret project was in motion..." The Armenian Genocide was the first genocide of the 20th century, perpetrated by the Ottoman Turkish Government against the Armenians, a Christian minority in a Muslim state. One and a half million people died. The word 'genocide' itself was invented by Raphael Lemkin in 1943 to describe the events of Adolf Hitler used the Armenian Genocide as a direct inspiration for the Holocaust during the Second World War. To this day, the Turkish government refuses to admit that any genocide ever took place. Commemorating the exact centenary of the deportations that began the Armenian Genocide, I Wish To Die Singing Voices From The Armenian Genocide is a controversial documentary drama uncovering the forgotten secrets and atrocities of a denied genocide featuring eye-witness reportage, images, music, poetry from Armenia's greatest poets, and verbatim survivors testimonies from one of the greatest historical injustices of all time. ns/2015/i-wish-to-die-singing.php Thursday 23 April Organised by AGCCC UK Exhibition and Educational program school (Name and location of school will not be publicised)

17 Visit Armenia and Artsakh with Baroness Caroline Cox s HART Foundation
18 Dear Reader Thank you for taking the time to review the Centenary events organised by AGCCC UK. Further events are in the pipeline and will be publicised in future updates. We would greatly appreciate your support in every sense. The total cost of the program will be around 200,000. We rely on the generosity of our supporters to help us realise our objectives. The Turkish government has been actively working to divert the attention of the World Community from focusing on the Centenary of the Armenian Genocide to the commemorations at Gallipoli, by their cynical act of changing the traditional date for commemorations from 25 th to 24 th April, the International Day of commemoration of the Armenian Genocide perpetrated by the Ottoman Empire.
