Dances of Egypt - Jawaahir Dance
Saturday, April 15th 2-2:30pm
Join us on the public floor of East Lake Library for special performance from
Jawaahir Dance. Playful, dramatic, and always joyous, Jawaahir's members will
perform a diverse repertoire of folkloric dances that will expand your
perceptions of Middle Eastern dance. You'll hear the traditional rhythms, see
the distinctive costumes, and expressive dance traditions of Egypt, Tunisia,
and the Saudi Gulf. The Company introduces each dance with relevant movement,
musical, and cultural information. Often audience members are encouraged to
participate by clapping to the music and learning simple movements. This
creates an exceptional experience for both the audience and the performers!
Registration is not required.
First Performance of a Three Part Series - additional performances are 5/6
Ballare Teatro: Hip Hop and 5/20 Zorongo Flamenco : Flamenco from 2-2:30pm
Hope to see you soon! We appreciate your support of the library and our
special local dance studios :)
