Uncaged: illuminating Afghan women artists through music and dance
Music and art is forbidden in Afghanistan, leaving ancient traditions to live on in hiding or exile. The program will open with the mesmerizing sound of centuries-old Afghan raga music, performed on traditional instruments. Following will be the premiere of a ballet written by Sadie Harrison and choreographed by Elisa Scroth, based on artworks by Afghan women smuggled out of the country and on display this evening. The ballet will be performed by Ekklesia Contemporary Ballet and Cuatro Puntos Ensemble, and the artworks are made possible through the courageous work of Northern Ireland’s Beyond Skin.
