Both performances explore aspects of contemporary Egyptian culture in very different ways, and have each been supported by the British Council and will be performed at Bluecoat.
Belbaladi (Premier) - Ezzat Ezzat Dance Company.
The UK premier of contemporary dance piece Belbaladi - an exploration of the most common gestures used in Egyptian body language, set to a score of Mahraganat: a music that comes from the heart of the Egyptian society.
Belbaladi represents independent dance studio Ezzat Ezzat’s journey to find a style of movement that emerges from the Egyptian people – one that is influenced by this complex ancient society, mixed with a contemporary sense of humour.
Ana Asif (extract from Ancient Modernity) - Joon Dance.
Ana Asif is a short solo extract of Ancient Modernity created by Aly Khamees and directed by Zosia Jo.
Ancient Modernity sees choreographer and artist Zosia Jo bring together her multidisciplinary interests of spoken word, theatre and dance to create a living, breathing, dancing museum of modern Egyptian culture. There will be no pharaohs, no hieroglyphs and no talk of revolution.
