Let your inner Muse shine and be creative!! A show that features dances which don't fit our ordinary Middle Eastern hafla formats. This is a show for the odd, the quirky or the unusual dance. Fusion styles, gothic tribal, urban grunge, burlesque, poi, Bollywood, etc. If you can think of it, you can probably do it.
Time Limit? 5 minutes
This event is sponsored by Kasha & the Alkasha Dancers. PLEASE EMAIL KASHA DIRECTLY TO RESERVE YOUR SPOT AT: kasha4bd@yahoo.com
Cost: $5.00 PAYBLE AT THE DOOR
Warning: Not a family-oriented show. Parental discretion strongly advised.
Licensed animals are allowed. Strewn objects are allowed at the end of the show if you stay to clean up. But, sorry, no fire.
Let's break out of the usual boundaries of status quo and explore our imaginations. While I believe in preserving the dance styles that we have derived from traditional Middle Eastern dances, we can only appreciate them if we keep our minds and creative spirits open to the new. Explore - musical genres, costume variations, range of body movements, emotional interpretations, stage presentation, erotic subtext, non-traditional props, humor or avant garde manifestation of the art of dance.
Prefer no minimalism.

       I had a great time and can't wait to perform again. Everyone was great about showing their appreciation and doing their best to make sure everyone was uplifted and feeling great. It was the best time I've ever had.

       This was so much fun! My husband and I came to watch and we just loved all the different interpretations! All of the dancers were gorgeous, of course. I'm excited to learn some more moves so that I can perform a solo someday! Thanks to Kasha for organizing this event!
