Presented by: Irondale Center
Date: Wed, 01 Feb 2012
Time: 08:00p - 10:00p

February 1 – 11 (performances run Wednesday through Saturday, 8pm) Irondale and the French theater company, Scenes, team up to present the American premier of An Arab in My mirror written by Riad Cahmi and Philippe Vincent, directed by Philippe Vincent. An Arab in My Mirror has been featured at the Rawabet Space in Cairo, Egypt and at The Centre Choregraphique National in France. The piece will be performed in French and English by a multi-national cast. Irondale Ensemble member Scarlet Maressa Rivera will be a featured actress in this production, in keeping with Mr. Vincent’s tradition of casting a local actress in each country where the play is performed.
Philippe Vincent is the artistic director of Scenes, a twenty year old theater company based in France. Scenes share the same view point as Irondale, and create work with a social conscience that speaks to a wide range of communities about relevant issues, making this co-production of Arab in My Mirror a strong and meaningful partnership.
