Ahlan wa Sahlan to The Farha Tour 2008! The Tour is proudly
brought to you by Australia's very own Amera's Palace Belly
Dance boutique. It's going to be a history-making event
for the Australian Belly Dance community and the Farha Tour
team is proud to be presenting such an exciting and dynamic
experience. Normally, the only place you can see and participate
in an event of this caliber is in the Middle East, but now
lovers of the Middle Eastern performing arts have the fantastic
opportunity to enjoy this entertainment within Aussie shores!
Oi! Oi! Oi!
After
having proven to be a great success throughout Europe, we
assure you that The Farha Tour 2008 will not disappoint.
With both an international and national cast of professional
Middle Eastern dancers, musicians and instructors, how can
we go wrong?! The stunning Madame Randa Kamel will take
centre stage with the live Egyptian Orchestra, Fer'et El
Negoum. Cairo dancers, Yasmina and Australia's very own,
Caroline, will dazzle you with the grace, precision and
playfulness that is typical of the Egyptian style of Oriental
Dance. The folkloric style of Mohamed Kazafy, one of the
lead dancers of the well-known Reda Troupe, and Australia's
top Egyptian folkloric troupe, Farrah - Rakasat Fanana Masrea,
will take you back to the roots of Belly Dance, whilst the
Whirling Dervish will put you in a trance! The beautiful
voices of Safaa Farid and Shaabi singer, Hoda, will also
leave you wanting more!
Want
more? Then don't forget to book early to ensure your place
in one, or many of the fantastic dance and music workshops
that are being presented at The Farha Tour 2008. With a
line up showcasing many of Sydney's best and most in demand
instructors, and of course our international stars, you
will have to be quick as places are limited.
If
that wasn't enough, for three days and three nights the
Parramatta Riverside Theatre courtyard will be transformed
into the pseudo Khan El Khalili markets direct from Cairo.
Ogle at stunning costumes from Egypt, mingle with their
designers, be henna tattooed in the tradition of the Ghawazee
or simply relax, take in the ambience and watch the dance
and music performances, all whilst puffing away on a shisha!
For
more information and to book your tickets, please visit
the Farha Tour website www.farhatour.com.au.
It's
going to be an amazing three days so book early to get a
good seat at the Cairo Nights concerts and a guaranteed
position in your preferred workshop. See you there!
