About
"Two
Thousand
and
One
Nights"
In
a
new
Theatrical
creation
by
the
Caracalla
Dance
Theatre,
"Two
Thousand
and
One
Nights"
unveils
the
mystery
of
the
East.
Through
the
sands
of
time,
enchanted
tales
of
the
"Arabian
Nights"
have
entranced
its
readers
with
the
unusual
and
extraordinary.
Their
dominant
effect
lies
in
their
ability
to
enlighten
the
human
spirit
and
redeem
the
symbolism
that
touches
the
senses.
In
our
story,
"Sheherazade"
cures
"Sheherayar"
from
his
hatred
and
sets
free
the
wrath
of
his
rule.
The
determined
hope
of
an
"unknown
prince"
challenges
death
and
conquers
with
love.
While
at
the
market
place,
disguised
amongst
the
parading
merchants
each
eager
to
"sell
beauty",
appears
a
stranger
who
mesmerizes
the
crowd
searching
for
justice
between
rich
and
poor.
Throughout
the
centuries,
an
obsessive
attraction
to
the
aesthetics
of
the
East
has
been
a
vast
inspiration
to
numerous
artists
from
the
world.
"Two
Thousand
and
One
Nights"
opens
the
eyes
to
an
intriguing
fantasy
and
the
hearts
to
a
romantic
imagination
of
desire
and
compassion.
With
an
original
music
score
of
grand
oriental
orchestration,
a
majestic
stage
setting,
the
richness
of
detailed
costumes
depicting
their
characters
and
a
spirited
choreography,
"Two
Thousand
and
One
Nights"
journeys
through
an
innovative
creation
into
the
new
century
of
the
art
world. |
