Fantastic! I would enjoy so much seeing the entire show... Is it available somewhere?

[Zannouba75]

@BelleSorceress thanks for your comment... for the moment the show Awadi is no more available because we concentrated on another one, called The Nomad Ball but we hope we'll make it all again soon

Hi everybody...

I see our show is happily the occasion for many talks and cultural arguments ( sorry for my quite bad english)

As choreographer of the show, here is what I can tell you about these costumes story

First of all, even if we do have respect for persons that dance cabaret style in a fine way, we think that we should not be forced to dress with only a glitter bra to dance oriental , arabic or egyptian style of dance. That is why we created such a show. Others styles do exist

[Zannouba75]

Thanks Dancigirl and Margitno for your comment! This show is a tribute to traditionnal forms of egyptian dance , so we re-interpret saidi, ghawazee, baladi and zar dances , it depends on the choreographies ....

For axample, images with continuous shimmy and a red veil is inspired by gestures and incredible energy of ghawazee dancers , but in the show the music comes from egypt/sudan, as it is a reinterpretation

This is theatre (and that is a compliment!) Bravo. So much more entertaining than dancers in a line all doing hip-drops with plastic smiles or trying to look gothly robotic! This was compelling.

so stunning. this is Art. the dances are like a series of different paintings in motion. I really dislike most bellydance performances i've seen because they are more like peep shows and retain no mystery. not to mention the tacky costumes and constant smiling. gah. hats off to them though. but the clothes/veils, movements, lighting in combination with the music in this video are far more potent and alluring.

c'est jolie mais domage qu'elle sont voilé : /

[spiceroyer]

this is nice, a-tu un video du show au complete?

@zannouba75: merci d'avoir faite un show pour les gens qui sont fatiguer du format Jamilla. it's like the only style of belly dance the general public is willing to accept is the hollywood/american style interpretation from the last century.

lets watch this and pretend for a moment that belly dance is an ancient art form that was around long before sequins and hair extensions!!!

if anyone doubts it let them watch Latcho Drom!!

I love it.  Very artistic! Beautiful color and imagery! I think that if we are going to dance and perform for others its best if we have some intention, some image, some sentment, thought, or feeling we want to share with the world. Obviously, you have a well thought out artistic intention!

Seeing these talented women dancing in those respectful dresses is way better than most of the things we see today.
