Tales from Arab Land

You really can't go wrong with free events, especially if they're as good as tonight's was. This wasn't quite a play per se but literally a compilation of various stories from the Arab world as told by Alia Alzougbi - with the accidental theme of Mastery and Slavery.

We heard funny stories, tragic stories, short stories and long, some for me had more of a point than others but all were so well told a lot of the time it was more about the delivery than the content. Alia really was good at this stuff.

To be honest I've never heard of the Khayaal group so I didn't really know what to expect, but this single woman show was funny, engaging and so much fun I think I'll have to look them up.
