The production is a melding of narrative with a wide variety of traditional and cutting-edge Middle Eastern dance and music.

We were fortunate to have a new photographer at our last gala show on November 14, 2009. It was Oscar’s first belly dance event, and though I invited him purely to get photos of my own costuming work, he spent the entire day snapping shots from our show and has fallen in love with our art form. Here are some of my favorite shots from that day. - 6-16-10 IBCC 2010: Thursday Main Stage Performance Photos and Video, Photos by Samira, Video by GS staff
