Tappay Tales Bradford Showcase Performance | Kala Sangam Arts Centre

Details

The Tappay Tales Bradford Showcase Performance is an evening of celebration that offers a captivating exploration of South Asian/Punjabi culture and heritage through the art of old folk songs. This remarkable project, which is part of phase two of the original Project held in Birmingham in 2022, has expanded its reach to include the vibrant city of Bradford. Led by the talented Abda Khan, Tappay Tales Bradford provides a platform for participants from British South Asian communities to share and engage with these traditional folk songs in interactive workshops. These workshops serve as a catalyst for an exploration of the deep roots and timeless themes embedded within the songs, inspiring participants to produce their own creative written works that reflect their unique cultural and ancestral backgrounds. To commemorate the culmination of this extraordinary project, a captivating live performance will be presented, featuring both the old folk songs themselves and the remarkable creative works produced by the participants. The event will also include powerful poetry performances by the talented Sharena Lee Satti, as well as a heartwarming and thought-provoking play titled 'Rani aur Amee', written by Abda Khan and starring Ravneet Sehra and Jaya Khazaei. This not-to-be-missed event will take place at the Kala Sangam Arts Centre in Bradford on November 30, 2023. Tickets for this incredible showcase are priced at just £2.50 and include light refreshments. Additionally, a book documenting the project will be available for purchase at the event, giving attendees the opportunity to delve even deeper into the rich tapestry of South Asian/Punjabi culture and heritage. Join us for an unforgettable evening of artistic excellence and cultural exploration at the Tappay Tales Bradford Showcase Performance. Immerse yourself in the captivating beauty of old folk songs and witness the incredible creative expressions that have emerged from these workshops.
