SUMMARY:Echoes of Earth – Nature Voices in Motion\, Sound and Light
DESCRIPTION:An “immersive performance” that blends classical music\, theatrical narrative and video projections “to awaken the senses and inspire environmental consciousness … in a powerful celebration of the natural world and a moving reflection on the collective responsibility to protect it”. Created by environmentalist Cyril Escaravage in association with clarinetist and composer Stéphane Ferrault\, both of whom feature in the performance (as actor and musician respectively)\, Echoes of Earth includes works by Debussy\, Chopin\, Ravel and Glass. \nEscaravage has quoted Erik Orsena in outlining his approach  “Before we understand\, we have to explain. To explain\, you have to marvel. To marvel\, you have to tell”. He says it’s the spectacle of marvelling at nature’s beauties and mysteries\, to explain what is happening before our eyes\, and to show that we can act … \nPresented in partnership with Emirates Nature—WWF\, Climate Fresk\, and Chalhoub Group and previously been performed at Dubai College and the Theatre of Digital Art (ToDA)\, the event marks a major moment in SUAD’s initiatives for 2025 being designated the Year of Ocean.

SUMMARY:Carnage: Courtesies\, Goodwill\, and Other Hypocrisies
DESCRIPTION:This adaptation of Yasmina Reza’s Le Dieu du Carnage is described as a “compelling theatrical experience that delves into the fragile facade of civility”. The play follows two couples who meet to resolve a conflict between their children – but what begins as a polite discussion quickly descends into chaos. With biting dialogue and moments of raw emotion\, this adaptation reveals the deep-seated hypocrisies\, prejudices\, and tensions lurking beneath the surface of social norms … Presented with the Italian Cultural Institute Abu Dhabi and Italian Theater & Culture Association\, the performance is in Italian with English subtitles

SUMMARY:Siena Jazz Festival
DESCRIPTION:SUAD is collaborating with the Italian Ministry of Culture\, the Italian Cultural Institute and Accademia Nazionale del Jazz (Siena Jazz) to host a concert “with the goal of promoting young talent and contemporary jazz music”. The Academy\, the only academic institution for jazz music education in Italy\, runs the international Siena Jazz Festival for two weeks each summer; this inaugural UAE outcrop is a more modest event at the moment\, with two bands. We know that one will be Camilla Battaglia’s four piece as used for her album EMIT: Rotator Tenet (hopefully including top trumpeter Ambrose Akinmusire\, who often plays with her); we don’t know the other yet. \nTomorrow (18 October) the mini-festival moves to Dubai\, with three bands playing at the Fridge.
