‘Wailing of the Body’ performance at Embassy of Switzerland

CAIRO - 4 September 2017: ‘Wailing of the Body’ dance performance will take place on September 10 at the Embassy of Switzerland in Cairo.

‘Wailing of the Body’ is inspired by the natural process that takes place when the body feels pain both physically and psychologically. The concept emphasizes how while our mind could differentiate the different types of pain, our body cannot.

The concept and choreography was designed by Egyptian choreographer Mohamed Shafik. The performance includes Aly Khamees, Shady Abdelrahman, Hossam Abd Elhameed, and Al Kaml Rajab. This show is part of the Breaking Walls Festival that is taking place in Cairo.
