Beytna – Cie Omar Rajeh | Maqamat

An interesting idea – five dancer/choreographers (Omar Rajeh, May Bou Matar, Anani Sanouvi, Koen Augustijnen, Jihun Choi) and four musicians (Ziad El Ahmadie, Samir Nasr Eddine, Youssef Hbeisch, Afif Merhej) meet onstage over a banquet. Bringing different artistic experiences and ideas from different cultures and countries, they talk, drink, laugh, dance, and prepare food together. As the conversation develops, this meeting becomes the starting point of a more complex choreographic and conceptual performance … Presented with the support of Dance Reflections by Van Cleef & Arpels.
