Luanda — The theatre group Etu-Lene will perform next weekend, in the facilities of the Angolan Solidarity League for People (LAASP), in Luanda, two plays entitled "Atiraram o velho Katy Ngote para sua penúltima morada" and "Uiji Uijia".

On Saturday, the first mentioned play, which is about the story of the elderly Katy Ngote (a role played by the Angolan actor Avelino Viegas) who invests all his savings in his only begotten son's training.

Once Caetano is trained (the son of elder Ngote) he decides to be subservient to his father as a gesture of gratitude for what the

old man had done for him, to the point of separating from the woman he loved to marry another one that his father chose for him.

Later, the elder Ngote found out that the baby his daughter-in-law was expecting was not his grandson.

When the old man decides to tell this subject to his son, Caetano simply ignores his father and only believes in his wife's word, then the son decides to take the father to an elderly home, where old man Ngote end up killing himself.

This play was written by Beto Cassua, who is also an actor and the head of the group. The theatre work counted on the participation of eight actors and was shown for the first time on 24 June 2006.

On Sunday, the group will perform the play "Uiji Uijia", which is about the story of a young man who in eagerness to become rich, decides to resort to a witch who entices him to sleep with his own mother. In consequence of that the young man makes his mother pregnant.
