Alice in Arabialand
Written by Sameer Arshad
Directed by Eden Aztlán
May 23 – June 14, 2025
Fall down the rabbit hole with Alice on an adventure to “Arabialand” where she will meet queens, challenge djinns, and learn from mystics. As Alice journeys through the queer underground, she learns more about the impact of decades of colonialism and imperialism on the region. A magical realism fusion of Lewis Carroll's novel and Arab folklore, Alice in Arabialand will delight and move those familiar with and new to queer life in the Middle East.
