NEO DERVISH

Neo Dervish is a show that deals with the four levels of life mentioned in Sufism (sharia, sect, truth, and ingenuity) and it is a show that processes the comprehension of these levels and makes its strong performance structure unique with live music and videos. It deals with the importance of completing our humanitarian duty with hope and faith in our reality, which is evolving at an alarming rate, as well as talking about our arrival at the levels of truth and ingenuity by being kneaded in uninterrupted torment from birth.

While ney, percussion and electronic music involve the audience in a ritualistic show with the tones of different times and geographies, Ziya Azazi presents a unique and divine dervish performance.
