Trinidad Carnival will see
Brian Wong Won's
MAS JUMBIES presentation of '
Bourgeois' hit the streets in fine style for J'Ouvert 2011. For the past four years Mas Jumbies have been entertaining masquerades and spectators alike with some of the most creative original, historic inspired presentations seen in the 21st century to date.
J'Ouvert 2011's Bourgeois will follow in this modern tradition. Bourgeois is inspired by the pre-emancipation
carnivals of the French plantation owners of the period (1783-1805). These pre-lentern celebrations were exclusive to the upper and middle class French and did not include that of the
African slave population, except for the privy talented few who entertained the Bourgeois at their exclusive events...
The band is made up of 7stylish sections, take a look and take your pick.
