Revolve Festival 2008 Danger!...Gulaam Fatima

The performances are part of the Revolve festival and the set will include performances by poet Shamshad Khan and Black Voices. From the satirical to the spiritual, from the poetic to the political, Shamshad will perform from her new collection Megalomaniac. Occasionally youll hear a sound, a voice, a song and it satisfies deep inside. Black Voices will raise you off the ground and remind you what it means to be alive.

Storytelling by Muslim women about a heroic superwoman in hijab. Gulaam Fatima empowers other women to be themselves through poetry, song and spoken word. This performance touches upon famous women from Islamic history as well as everyday emotions that take the performers on a journey where they get lost, grow up and get rescued. This is a first work from emerging artists who have been bought together by Ulfah Arts, mentored by Shamshad Khan (Performance poet), Black Voices (acapella legends!) and directed by Kate Hale. Only three performances are taking place and tickets are limited. Therefore we wanted to ensure you got the chance to see this work, by letting you know in advance.
