“Baba Karam” is a 50-minute performance and a euphoric dance party inspired by the Iranian dance of the same name.<\/strong>
\n
\nInspired by Iranian home parties, “mehmooni,” and the movements that amateur dancers from around the world have sent to the Ful artistic group, the group pays tribute to the potential of dance to change and enable the existence of forbidden desires and identities.<\/span><\/h3>\n
Through the popular dance of baba karam, with queer desires always present, we also want to explore drag from a perspective that does not necessarily reproduce the given truths of a white, Western drag tradition. We welcome expressions and traditions created within the diaspora and the decolonial field of thinking and art making.<\/div>\n
\n

In the performance, music and dance intertwine with documentary and personal stories about the impact that dance can have on people’s lives. The show is a tribute to the influential and well-known American-Iranian choreographers, Jamileh and Mohammad Khordadian, who encouraged millions of people worldwide to dance. Their work changed the perspective on what dance can achieve.<\/p>\n
