SUMMARY:LAST CHANCE Urdu Worlds
DESCRIPTION:A contemporary art exhibition dedicated to the Urdu language: according to Ishara\, “the show explores how language provides the tools with which we create and shape our internal ‘worlds’. Words\, rather than simply describing our surroundings\, give rise to our private lived experiences and shared cultural understandings”. \nCurated by Hammad Nasar\, the exhibition is a visual conversation around language between Ali Kazim and Zarina (it’s also the first comprehensive presentation of Kazim’s works in the GCC). Born in Aligarh\, India\, Zarina weaves Urdu script\, proverbs and poetry into her delicate print works; Ali Kazim\, a multimedia artist based in Lahore\, Pakistan\, grounds his ‘Urdu world’ in a sense of place while exhibiting an eclecticism of influences that reflects the composite and layered history of the language.

SUMMARY:Monday Night Comedy: This Is Impro / Film Noir Improvised
DESCRIPTION:A two-act evening of spontaneous scenes and songs based on audience suggestions\, by some of our most experienced players and guests. After warming up with some fun games and scenes\, the improvisers bring the 1950’s Film Noir genre to life on stage using audience suggestions in an improvised murder mystery. “Heroes with blackened hearts and dames with revenge on their mind … everything is completely improvised each week\, and no two stories are the same. Join us amongst the murky underworlds where crime and passion cross swords and you’re never far from a man in a hat”. \nIt’s free\, but you need to put your name on the guestlist (via the website) – it’s first-come first-served\, so get there early enough to grab a seat.
