Fully-staged, with costumes, dancing, professional soloists, a cast of around fifty people and a full symphony orchestra, this will be a wonderful opportunity to experience an evening of musical theatre in the stunning new Performing Arts Centre at The English School Salmiya. The Desert Song is one of very few operas in existence set in the Arab world. It tells the story of the efforts of the French in Morocco, in about 1910, to suppress rebellion by a band of desert outlaws, the Riffs. The stern General Birabeau is sent from France to be in charge of the combat; he is impatient that his son Pierre is not interested in soldiery. Only at the end does he discover that Pierre is secretly the dashing Red Shadow, leader of the Riffs. The production includes comedy, romance, warfare, and more romance.

The Grapevine has managed to make it into the 30th slot since its launch 4 months ago, and all this is thanks to our fellow readers & contributors. We are so humbled. Once again, we THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts! The Grapevine has received a positive response from the community, and we have many plans in store for our humble little site thanks to your suggestions and ideas. One of them is to perhaps make it easier for our contributors by turning it into a community blog where you can submit your own events/activities, another is to perhaps create an application for the events/activities posted, another is to add a "search" feature-- let us know what you think, and feel free to let us know of any other suggestions or ideas you'd like to see on here. We are all ears!
