Samaa Wakim & Samar Haddad King: Interdisciplinarity in Dance

Samaa Wakim graduated from the faculty of Theatre at the University of Haifa and has since performed in numerous dance theatre productions; Samar Haddad King, the founding artistic director of Yaa Samar! Dance Theatre, has a BFA in choreography, has choreographed several productions, and co-authored a chapter on dance in the Arab World for the 2nd edition of Contemporary Choreography (Routledge, 2018). Their conversation will cover their past multi-modal collaborations and extend into a discussion of the future of the field.

This piece is part of the Frontiers dance programme, which includes Wakim and Haddad King’s piece Losing It on 14 December.
