Sunday May 27:
“Mach Mach” - The Moroccan Schikhatt is a city folk/traditional dance, done at pre-wedding parties (first the women’s parties, then often at the men’s as well). It’s a type of social dance that also educates the bride-to-be on matters of connubial bliss. This is a modern, more upbeat version of Schikhatt, done with 2 soft scarves or hankies or a long, narrow scarf. 12:30-2:30 PM, Studio 5, KLPAC. Fee: RM 140 |
