Raqs Luminaire is an annual event organized by Khalima. She provides a venue, a team of tech people and a narrative structure for a variety of performers; dancers, singers, actors and musicians to participate.
This year the Russian folk tale of Baba Yaga and Vasilissa the Beautiful provides the overiding story line while performers interpret other folk tales in various genres; Bollywood/Indian, Caporereia/Brazilian, Bellydance, Cabaret... and various hybrids.
In collaboration with August Hoerr, we provide music for the character baba Yaga, incidental music, foley art and a piece composed for Khalima's dance.
Below is a teaser video by Arthur Stephens of a rehearsal that includes Rogue Bellydance Collective, Spoon, Onca and the Alexandra Dance Company. The opening music is a recording by Raquy and the Cavemen.
