For many adults, the Middle East is a political place - but this weekend, bring your children to enjoy a different view of life, with a fairy tale set in Baghdad. The Golden Thread Players present The Girl Who Lost Her Smile, featuring the visually rich traditions of Iranian storytelling.

Their vision is "to create a world where our common experience as human beings supersedes our cultural and political differences. In our vast imagination, the Middle East is defined not by geographical boundaries and political separations, but as the shared experience of the people, who throughout history have been touched by its tales, melodies and aromas. The Middle East lives inside us, as we redefine ourselves, we redefine the Middle East."
