Pop-Up Performances: Yaa Samar! Dance Theatre
Saturday, November 5, 2022
7:30–8:30 pm
Beaux-Arts Court and Egyptian Galleries, 3rd Floor
Experience a series of ten-minute pop-up performances—taking place over the course of an hour—that employ the image of the bull known as Kuyūthā in medieval Islamic cosmography. Created by Artistic Director Samar Haddad King and featuring company members Arzu Salman and Mohammed Smahneh, this performance explores herd mentality, capitalism, and the physical process through which these systems are dismantled.
