Join Lebanese-French dance company Maqamat for an interactive dance performance in the beautiful surrounds of the Old College Quad.

Choreographers Omar Rajeh and Mia Habis invite you to step into the rhythm of creativity in everyday life. Set outdoors against the striking backdrop of Edinburgh’s Old College Quad, Lebanese-French dance company Maqamat presents Dance People – a performance where the line between audience and performer dissolves.

Dance People pirouettes between joy and critique, examining the power structures that influence the artistic process. Democracy, dictatorship and culture are placed under the spotlight, their tensions explored through dynamic choreography and unflinching physicality. Across France, Lebanon and the Arab region, Rajeh is acclaimed for his politically charged works, which merge movement with activism.
