Cuban performing arts often play an important role in engaging citizens with a sense of history and place, and in addressing environmental and cultural challenges. In far Western Cuba, in the city of Pinar del Rio, a government-funded, collaborative street performance group called TECMA (translated as Theatre of the Environment) trains homeless and disenfranchised local teenagers in the art of stilt performance.
