A Night of Arabian Dreams

6th June @ 7:00 pm - 8:15 pm
£18

An enchanting, immersive Middle Eastern dance theatre experience

A Night of Arabian Dreams is an immersive dance theatre experience that transports audiences into a world of rhythm, storytelling, live percussion, and dreamlike imagery inspired by the richness of Arabic traditions.

Built as a story within a story, the performance journeys through themes of love, loss, longing, celebration, and joy through dance, music, and theatrical imagery.

Blending traditional and contemporary Middle Eastern dance forms with theatrical and contemporary movement, the production creates an atmosphere that is both intimate and evocative. Featuring local artists from Derry, including contemporary dancers and a live darbuka player, the work brings together different artistic voices within a shared theatrical space.

A Night of Arabian Dreams was previously presented during Culture Night at The MAC, where it received a full house and very positive audience response.

Created and directed by Mar Decena, the production draws from years of experience in dance theatre, Middle Eastern dance, and cross-cultural performance practice.
