SUMMARY:Ahmad Nabil: Fetus Exodus
DESCRIPTION:A Jameel Library Commission by the Palestinian artist and educator that explores regional myths and legends through ten monthly texts – chapters in fact\, in digital form – that address an imagined foetus (referred to as a “child of myths”) as it prepares to be born. Through this imagined dialogue\, the foetus is introduced to mythological thought and encouraged to embrace a shared imaginarium. The chapters traverse the entire cycle from creation and birth to resurrection\, encouraging exploration of their commonalities while making space for differences. \nAfter its conclusion on 27 July you can still view the whole project here.

SUMMARY:Mama Mia!
DESCRIPTION:The worldwide smash hit arrives in Abu Dhabi with its heartwarming story (the lighthearted and humorous tale of a mother\, her daughter\, and three possible fathers on an idyllic Greek island)\, created by Judy Craymer – who rarely gets the credit she’s due – around the songs of Benny Anderson and Bjorn Ulvaeus. Apparently 65 million people around the world have seen the show\, and there’s a good chance that this extended run on Yas will add substantially to that number … Note that there are separate prices for weekdays (starting at AED 125) and weekends (from AED 200). Before the Friday and Saturday evening performances there’s also an Abba/Mediterranean themed brunch deal of offer at AED 199 per ticket. \nPerformances: \n11 June 7.30pm\n12 June 7.30pm\n13 June 7.30pm\n14 June 1pm\n14 June 6pm\n15 June 1pm\n15 June 6pm \n19 June 7.30pm\n20 June 7.30pm\n21 June 1pm\n21 June 7pm\n22 June 1pm\n22 June 6pm

SUMMARY:Mami Wata: dir CJ Obasi (2023)
DESCRIPTION:Much-awarded black-and-white fantasy thriller\, based on Nigerian folklore. Said the LA Times: “That balance between light and dark is how Obasi most potently underscores all his themes: faith and proof\, tradition versus modernity\, the otherworldly alongside the human\, and of course\, Mami Wata’s power to give and take”. \nScreens with Baptized by Fire (dir Kach Offor\, 2024: 15 mins) – a psychedelic exploration of anxiety\, social alienation and the inefficacy of escapism: a regular visit to a dealer in the slums of Lagos takes an unexpected turn and forces this anxious stoner on a different kind of trip. \nThis is the opener for a programme of Friday-evening films selected by Ose Ekore to support the gallery’s current group exhibition time heals\, just not quick enough (runs to 30 July). \n

SUMMARY:Jesse Cook
DESCRIPTION:A chance to see the noted Canadian master guitarist\, composer\, and producer performing live. He’s accompanied by Fethi Nadjem (violin\, mandole)\, Dan Minchom (bass)\, Matt Sellick (guitar)\, and either Matais Recharte or Marito Marques (drums\, cajón\, percussion) – and there’s a special guest star\, top oud soloist Sherine Tohamy. \nKnown for his intoxicating fusion of world music\, Cook has travelled the globe looking for sounds that resonate with him; the result is an innovative mix of flamenco\, jazz\, classical\, and world music from India to Spain\, and on to Cuba and Latin America. “I want to take people to places they haven’t been\,” he said recently: “A place where modern sounds can mix with ancient timbres”. He’s doing two dates here – this one\, and the Cultural Foundation in Abu Dhabi tomorrow (14 June). Highly recommended.
