The Rose & The Thorn
Arts Depot, Pentland Theatre, N12 0GA , [Venue Details]In a world where roses and beauty are always accompanied by thorns and sorrow, we gather to remember the timeless wisdom of the heart.
The Rose & The Thorn is an immersive evening by String of Pearls Ensemble and the Dunya Dance Collective, created in celebration of the collective’s inaugural launch. Together, twelve women invite audiences into the inner and outer gardens — where the rose and the thorn remain inseparable companions on the path of love.
Through Sufi poetry, storytelling, song, kamancheh, daf and the mesmerizing presence of six Sufi whirlers, the performance unfolds as a living tapestry rooted in the sacred feminine and the mystic traditions of the East, arriving at one eternal remembrance: ‘Only love can lead the way. ’ — Rumi.
Bring your heart and soul, and enter the garden with us.
