SUMMARY:Meeting Mozart
DESCRIPTION:This acclaimed interactive experience for the young has been a major success for Sydney Opera House; it’s a 40-minute show aimed at children aged 2 to 10 (and their families) which blends live music\, storytelling\, and song to introduce young audiences to the world of classical music “in a fun\, participatory\, and inclusive environment”; Mozart\, his wife and a string quartet help the audience explore the instruments\, scores\, and themes that characterise his best known compositions. \nThe show has curriculum connections to Performing Arts\, Fine Arts\, Social Studies – History & Culture and is reportedly great for Emotional Development. A free teacher’s resource pack provides classroom exercises and curriculum links. \nThere are performances at 11am\, 2pm and 5pm on Saturday and Sunday (2-3 November) and 9am and 11am on monday and tuesday (4-5 November); it moves on to Cultural Foundation Abu Dhabi for performances on 7-9 November.

SUMMARY:CLOSING TODAY Andy Warhol\, The Glam Factory
DESCRIPTION:A collection of more than 100 of Warhol’s works\, curated by Nada Ghandour\, which aims to trace Warhol’s rise from his modest beginnings in commercial illustration to his status as the Pope of Pop Art via screenprints\, photos\, and magazines from the 1960s to the 1980s. (The good news: seems there are none of his films.) \nThe exhibition is organized into two sections\, one for the man himself and the other to The Factory. Andy Warhol: From Shadows to Light covers the significant milestones of his career and his aesthetic evolution\, from his advertising drawings to the Campbell’s Soup Cans. The Glam Factory: Art Meets Business / The Business Man Artist focuses on his signature painted portraits (Marilyn Monroe\, Elizabeth Taylor\, Mao Zedong) and includes commissions and collaborations (Edward Kennedy\, Paloma Picasso\, Keith Haring). Additionally\, it features stars who shared Warhol’s extravagant social life and sometimes collaborated artistically with him (Calvin Klein\, Giorgio Armani\, Mick Jagger). \nThe AED 80 ticket is for weekdays; weekends the price goes up to AED 100.

SUMMARY:Rookies | Allons enfants: dir Thierry Demaizière and Alban Teurlai (2021)
DESCRIPTION:A prestigious Paris high school takes an audacious bet: to integrate students from working-class districts and to make them break the cycle of school failure through training in hip hop dance.

There are injuries and setbacks\, but also hopes\, dreams and transformations. Screens in the MOVE ON FILM season.

SUMMARY:Reminiscencia
DESCRIPTION:The second (and final) performance of this piece by the Chilean artist Malicho Vaca Valenzuela. Confined to his home during the Covid lockdown of 2020\, he sat down in front of his computer and began collecting memories from the residents of Santiago. His goal was to tell the story of his neighbourhood\, a vibrant area in the heart of the Chilean capital; his social media request for testimonies and personal memories about public spaces received numerous responses\, and at the same time his grandparents started to share their own memories with him\, their stories intertwining with the others. In this country “where there are immense blue skies in which one can read but where one doesn’t know what is hidden in the ground\,” the director digs into the earth: a simple click on a digital map and he uncovers mysterious loves and repressed revolutions\, so many fragments of an intimate and collective memory. Audience members are invited to quit chasing time and listen to the voices within them\, to cling to what may still remain of a memory. \nReminiscencia is part of Sharjah Art Foundation’s Perform Sharjah programme.
