Theater

Henna Night Reimagined transforms the traditional Turkish Henna Night. This rite of passage is typically centered around women and societal norms. However, Henna Night Reimagined is a thought-provoking show that celebrates self-liberation through a queer narrative. In contrast to the traditional Henna Night, which is often characterized by a sad and devaluing tone, this speculative performance is a celebration of the human experience.
