The Dabkeh of America

Yesterday we got the chance to attend one of dance performances in the Zakharef in Motion event at Al-Hussein Theatre in Ras Al-Ain, namely, the tap dancing show by the New York Dance Ensemble. It was really awesome, in fact, it was one of the best events we’ve been to in a while. The show was interactive, fun to watch, funny, and different.

But Moses supposes erroneously
And Moses, he knowses his toeses aren’t roses
As Moses supposes his toeses to be

The best part is, although the NY Dance Ensemble will not perform again, there’s a dazzling array of other shows that you can watch (for free) for the rest of this week.

Today, the 24th of April at 5:00 - The New York Tap Ensemble with a “special performance for children and youth” (not sure what that entails) and a short performance by Ryuji Yamaguchi.

(All show below are at 7:30 PM, at the Al-Hussein Cultural Center, and for free!)

Saturday: ISH from Holland.

Sunday: Mal Pelo from Spain.

Monday: Dansgroep Krisztina Chatel from Holland.

Tuesday: Compagnie Trafic de Style from France

Wednesday: Folkwang Tanzstudio from Germany
