Discover the original theatrical belly dance artists of the past, the legendary Egyptian dancers who created art form that still inspires us today.

You will meet Shafiqa el-Koptiyya, Bamba Kashar, Badia “The Queen of Theaters” Masabni, Mahmoud Reda, and many other dancers upon whose legacy we continue to build. Explore how Egyptian stars brought theatrical spark to their dance while preserving its Oriental essence. |
