A NITE with Babaddaar: Witch Hunt

During A NITE with Bab Ad-daar members of Bab Ad-daar dive into the theme of the performance Witch Hunt together with the audience. A NITE with Bab Ad-daar consists of a short performance, made and played by and for people with a migration background. After the performance there will be a discussion on feminism from the perspective of the Middle East and the programme will end with a mini afterparty.

The participants of A NITE with Bab Ad-daar will receive a ticket for the performance Witch Hunt on 13 May. This performance will have Arabic surtitles.

What makes a witch a witch? Who are being burned at the stake today? What traditions within our families, circles of friends, within society continue to haunt us? But more importantly, who are we if no one is looking over our shoulder to condemn us?

A NITE With Babbadaar takes you to a place where anything is possible. A place where the 'misfits' come together. Where we resist stifling traditions. Where people dance and sing. Where different languages speak as one voice. And where old stories are passed on and new magic is breathed into the air.

Bab Ad-Daar (meaning: "The door is always open") is a cultural platform and community of over 150 newcomers who rehearse together, create performances and develop theatrical participation programmes for the performances of NITE (Noord Nederlands Toneel + Club Guy & Roni).
