Tickets: $25-50 donation, no one will be turned away for lack of funds

Experience the vibrant heritage of Palestinian dance in a powerful two-hour event with the renowned El-Funoun Palestinian Dance Troupe. Merging dynamic dance, storytelling, and audience participation, this performance offers an intimate window into the lives and legacies of El-Funoun’s dancers. Through the voices and movements of five performers, stories of long-time members unfold, tracing cultural roots across generations, from parent to child. More than a performance, this is a living archive of memory, identity, and the enduring spirit of dabke as both resistance and celebration. Audiences are invited not only to witness but to share stories, ask questions, and join in the joy of dancing together.

The performance will feature an opening by Yalla Drum (New Arab American Theater Works) and a group of local dancers who will learn and perform El-Funoun repertoire.

Organized by Body Watani Dance Project, Mizna, and Grief and Rage Circle for Palestine.
