Hi Nour, I'm Seth, a NYC-based theatre director and writer and a friend of Hanae Bezad's.

I recently created a 'Gilgamesh' theatre production that tells a beautiful true story of male friendship between two young men, one Iraqi and one American. The actors Ahmed and Jesse play themselves and portray their real life friendship, and show how they overcame cultural, linguistic and religious differences and become best friends and play music together-- a fusion of 'Maqam' and North American jazz. I'd love to share more about the show with you sometime!

We are currently touring the show and would love to bring it to Dubai someday.
