An Evening of Bellydance
Featuring Zafira Dance Company

July 12 @ 8pm

Tawdri Cirque Performance and Art Collective presents An Evening of Bellydance Featuring Zafira Dance Company.

As well as Zafira, who was named troupe of 2007 by Zaghareet Magazine, the show will highlight local bellydancers from the Baltimore and Washington area.

Zafira Dance Company's performances are opulent vignettes that combine bellydance with contemporary and ethnic dance forms. The result is an ornate performance that blurs the boundary between old and new; performer and audience; and earthy and elegant.

Guided by the mood of the music, Zafira draws the viewer into each piece by shaping rhythm and melody into gesture and form. Liquid movements, staccato accents and textured choreographies capture a timeless beauty that expresses both the sensuality and strength of the female form.
An Evening of Bellydance is Saturday, July 12 @ 8pm. Tickets are $15. All proceeds benefit The Marian House, a holistic and healing community for women and their families who are in need of housing and support services. For more information, please visit marianhouse.org.

  • ZAFIRA RULES!! :)

    Great to have met ya face-to-face (you and Olivia) together for the 1st time...I'm still going through ''Zafira Withdrawl''. :D
    Great dancers and better folks, bring them to your town soon, people! (Yes maria, I'm at a Kinko's...Verizon has to fix my dead phoneline tomorrow)... :)~

    Peace,
    B.
  • YAY!! I LOVE BALTIMORE!!!
    Even if it's one of the most deadly cities...... we had the thee bestest time... & we love a cathy and her family as well!!!
    All the performers were awesome.... and yes, the sound guy sucked my loosened asshole.
    Although it did leave us with some pretty funny memories!
    Thanks to everybuddy... I wish I lived closer!
    Great to meet you brandon, I hope you get your internet soon!
    • Considering I have an entire theoretical trip to Pittsburgh planned around hitting cafes (Blue Horse and YIV!), we should get off our butts and make it out there at some point. It's finding that elusive thing called a "free weekend" that's tough!

      I wrote up the show experience, including inner monologue, at my blog:
      right-and-kind.blogspot.com/2008....html

      Lyra describe the end of our set, "...as the audience probably felt like shipmates on the SS Kallisti Titanic that Would Not Go Down in the Sea Dammit!"

      See you all at TribeO!
